Impact of Fed Expectations and Market Reaction

Experts cite the strengthening expectations of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in December as a key factor driving the growth. Following the Fed’s decision at the end of October 2025 to lower rates, although Chair Jerome Powell did not guarantee further easing, market sentiment remains optimistic. Additional influence comes from rumors that President Donald Trump has already chosen a candidate for the Fed chair position. Analysts at CME estimate the probability of a rate cut in December at 84.9%, while just a week ago this figure was around 40%.

The sharp rise in Bitcoin has led to mass liquidations of traders’ short positions: over the course of a day, the total liquidation volume in the futures market exceeded $318 million, with most of it attributed to shorts. This further emphasizes the strength of the upward trend.

The Fear and Greed Index remains in the “red” zone, but it also shows positive movement, having increased by three points over the last 24 hours. This may indicate a gradual recovery of confidence among market participants.

Vincent Liu, Chief Information Officer at Kronos Research, believes that the current movement of Bitcoin is driven by both technical factors and expectations surrounding the Fed’s decision:

“Bitcoin’s rise above $90,000 reflects a classic oversold bounce. After a sharp decline, buyers are returning to the market. The overall risk appetite, fueled by an 80% probability of a Fed rate cut in December, is providing the markets with the necessary momentum for stabilization and recovery of dynamics,” the expert noted.
