The post What the Fed Meeting Could Mean for Bitcoin and Crypto This Week<\/a> appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News<\/a><\/p>\n

With the Federal Reserve<\/a> set to announce its latest policy decision, markets are calm but not relaxed. Interest rates are widely expected to stay where they are, yet Bitcoin traders are paying close attention to what comes next.<\/p>\n

Veteran financial trader Matthew Dixon said interest rates are likely to remain unchanged at the upcoming FOMC meeting, adding that markets are more likely to react to the Fed\u2019s economic guidance than the rate decision itself.<\/p>\n

\n

According to Dixon<\/a>, \u201c#BTC and most #Crypto are sitting on significant support and so a breakout is expected soon.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Why the Fed Is Expected to Hold<\/h2>\n

Markets are almost fully aligned on the outcome. CME FedWatch data shows a 97.2% chance<\/strong> the Fed keeps rates unchanged in the 3.5%-3.75% range. That view matches comments made by Fed Chair Jerome Powell late last year and recent remarks from Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari, who said it is \u201cway too soon\u201d<\/em> to cut rates again.<\/p>\n

After three straight rate cuts toward the end of 2025, policymakers are expected to wait for more clarity as inflation remains above target while job growth cools but stays positive.<\/p>\n
