Fed Cuts Rates, Bitcoin Rallies

🟡For the first time in nine months, the U.S. Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by 25 bps to a range of 4.0–4.25%, citing a cooling labor market and persistent inflation. For consumers, the move means cheaper credit but also the risk of renewed price pressures.

🟡Crypto markets reacted positively: Bitcoin climbed immediately, while investors boosted stablecoin reserves in anticipation of fresh buying opportunities. Analysts note that easier monetary policy has historically fueled demand for risk assets, though questions over the Fed’s independence could inject fresh uncertainty.
