According to @rovercrc, the U.S. Federal Reserve has maintained its benchmark interest rates at 4.25%-4.50%, a move that was widely anticipated by the market. The Fed's latest economic projections indicate a more cautious outlook, with the forecast for 2025 rate cuts remaining at 50 basis points, but with fewer cuts expected in 2026 and 2027. Policymakers also lowered their GDP growth forecast for the current year to 1.4% from 1.7% and raised their inflation projections, with PCE now expected at 3.0%. Despite these macroeconomic shifts, the Bitcoin (BTC) price showed minimal volatility, holding steady around $104,200 immediately following the announcement, suggesting the market had already priced in the decision. Traders are now awaiting further commentary from Fed Chair Jerome Powell for more detailed guidance on future monetary policy.

According to StockMKTNewz, markets have priced in a 99.9% probability that the Federal Reserve, led by Jerome Powell, will keep interest rates unchanged at the upcoming FOMC meeting on June 19, 2025 (Source: StockMKTNewz on Twitter). While the rate decision is widely anticipated, traders should focus on the Summary of Economic Projections, set for release at 2PM ET. This report will provide critical insights into the Fed’s economic outlook and potential future rate paths, which are key market movers for both stocks and cryptocurrency assets. Crypto traders, especially those holding BTC and ETH, should prepare for possible volatility as new Fed guidance could impact risk sentiment and capital flows into digital assets (Source: StockMKTNewz on Twitter).
