On the evening of January 9, 2025, the crypto world's attention was focused on two key figures at the Federal Reserve. At 22:00, Raphael Bostic, the 2026 FOMC voting member and President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, delivered a speech on the 2025 economic forecast at an event. Just 5 minutes later, Eric Rosengren, the 2025 FOMC voting member and President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, also shared his insights on the economic outlook. Both speeches were rated as three and a half stars in terms of importance by Jinshi Data, highlighting their significant impact on the market.

Over the past year, the Federal Reserve's monetary policy has been an important barometer of volatility in the crypto world. In 2024, the Federal Reserve experienced a pace of rate cuts known as 'three consecutive cuts,' reducing the target range for the federal funds rate to between 4.25% and 4.50%. However, the dot plot released in December 2024 showed a reduction in the number of rate cuts expected for 2025 from 4 times predicted in September to 2 times, with the median rate forecast also revised from 3.4% in September to 3.9%. This undoubtedly cast a shadow of uncertainty over the market's expectations for rate cuts.

Currently, the market is highly sensitive to the future monetary policy direction of the Federal Reserve. Speeches by Harker and Collins may reveal key information about future interest rate adjustments, economic stimulus policies, and more. If their speeches lean hawkish, expressing concerns about inflation or implying a slowdown in rate cuts, it may trigger panic selling in the crypto world, causing a significant drop in prices of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Conversely, if the speeches lean dovish, emphasizing the risks of economic growth slowdown or showing support for further rate cuts, it will inject confidence into the crypto world and drive up cryptocurrency prices.

Investors in the crypto world are at a critical juncture and need to closely monitor speeches and market reactions, analyze the situation rationally, adjust investment strategies in a timely manner, seize opportunities and avoid risks in market fluctuations. #参与年终社区盛典助力,赢周边海量好礼 #GT新年屡破新高,接下来到多少? #BTC #ETH
