24-hour countdown to the Fed's final meeting—Powell's words alone can shake global assets

The current state of global markets can be summed up in one word: wait. Wall Street has pulled back from aggressive bets, US stocks are mixed, and those holding coins are on the sidelines. Bitcoin is stuck near $90,000, gold prices are hovering around $4,200, and leverage in the crypto market has clearly retreated—everyone understands you need to step aside at key moments.

On the surface, it's calm, but signals are flying everywhere behind the scenes. The US dollar index keeps surging, and the 10-year US Treasury yield spiked to 4.19% during trading yesterday, a new high since September, and is about to hit the 4.2% mark. The market’s message is clear: it’s betting the Fed will keep tightening.

But honestly, the suspense this time isn’t about the rate cut itself. The CME data is clear: there’s an 88% chance of a 25 basis point cut in December, making it almost certain to be the third consecutive cut. The real focus is on what Powell says—will there be more cuts next year? What will the dot plot show for 2026 rates?

The crypto market is especially sensitive to this. The Fed’s policy is like a liquidity faucet—if it turns hawkish or dovish, Bitcoin can swing more than 5% in minutes. How Powell balances inflation and growth will determine whether funds are willing to return to digital assets.

A rate cut may not be the end, but rather the opening act. Powell’s statements are enough to rewrite global asset allocation. Can $90,000 Bitcoin break through the ceiling? Will the year-end rally ignite? The answer comes tonight.
