Crypto markets slide after Fed decision as Powell warns inflation risks persist

Crypto markets declined sharply following the Federal Reserve's decision to hold interest rates steady, driven by Chair Jerome Powell's cautious tone on inflation. Bitcoin fell over 5%, Ethereum dropped more than 6%, and other major cryptocurrencies like XRP, Solana, and BNB also posted significant losses. Powell emphasized that inflation remains elevated, with PCE at 2.8% and core inflation at 3.0%, both above the Fed’s 2% target. He reinforced a data-dependent approach, indicating rate cuts are not imminent. This strengthened the "higher-for-longer" interest rate narrative, which negatively impacts risk assets like cryptocurrencies. The broad sell-off underscores crypto’s continued sensitivity to macroeconomic signals and U.S. monetary policy expectations. Markets are likely remain volatile and reactive to incoming economic data and geopolitical developments.

No Rate Cut by the US Fed Likely, Crypto Prices to Move Accordingly

The escalating conflict in the Middle East has reduced the likelihood of a US Federal Reserve rate cut in the upcoming meeting. Rising oil prices, now exceeding $100 per barrel, are fueling inflationary or stagflationary pressures in the US. This could influence cryptocurrency markets, which have recently shown strong weekly gains—Bitcoin and Ethereum rose 6.23% and 13.97%, respectively. In contrast, traditional safe-haven assets like gold and silver declined. The Fed aims to maintain steady rates to balance inflation risks and economic stability. Additional factors, such as proposed tariff policies and weakened consumer sentiment, further complicate the economic outlook.

Hormuz Strait Sparks Oil War, Will the Fed Cut Rates in June First?

U.S. February CPI data showed inflation remained at 2.4% year-on-year, with core CPI at 2.5%, indicating persistent price pressures. The report, collected before U.S.-Israel airstrikes on Iran, did not fully reflect potential energy price impacts from recent geopolitical tensions. Morgan Stanley maintains expectations for two 25-basis-point Fed rate cuts in June and September, though rising oil prices could delay this timeline. Market probabilities currently favor a 64% chance of a June cut. Escalating military conflict between the U.S./Israel and Iran has heightened risks of a major oil supply shock. Iran's threat to close the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for 20% of global oil shipments, has already driven Brent crude above $100 per barrel. A prolonged closure could push prices to $150 or higher, reminiscent of 1970s-style energy crises, potentially forcing the Fed to maintain higher rates for longer. Bitcoin continues to trade between $54,000 and $78,400, showing relative resilience compared to traditional assets like stocks and bonds. While short-term holders are selling at a loss—a typical bearish signal—crypto market leverage has significantly reduced, decreasing forced selling pressure. The upcoming FOMC meeting remains a key catalyst for both traditional and crypto markets.

Arthur Hayes Says US-Iran Tensions Could Lead to Fed Easing, Boost BTC

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, argues that escalating U.S.-Iran tensions could lead to Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, historically boosting Bitcoin and crypto assets. He cites past military engagements, like the Gulf War and post-9/11 actions, where the Fed injected liquidity to calm markets amid conflict and economic strain. Hayes suggests that if current tensions escalate, similar monetary easing could occur, potentially benefiting Bitcoin. He advises investors to wait for rate cuts before buying. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's price recently fell 1.10% to $66,291, down significantly from its 2025 peak.

February 28 Market Summary: Inflation Nightmare Returns, Defensive Sectors Soar, Tech Stocks Crushed

February 28 Market Summary: Inflation Fears Return, Defensive Sectors Soar, Tech Stocks Tumble A hotter-than-expected Producer Price Index (PPI) report shattered market optimism, with core PPI surging 0.8% month-over-month, 2.7 times higher than forecasts. This triggered a significant sell-off, causing the Nasdaq to post its worst monthly performance since last March, down over 3%. Market dynamics shifted dramatically, showcasing a major rotation. Defensive sectors led gains: Utilities had their best month since 2003, while Energy continues to lead year-to-date. In contrast, tech-heavy sectors and the "Magnificent Seven" stocks mostly fell. The iShares Tech Software ETF plummeted nearly 10% for the month. Amid the downturn, Dell emerged as a standout, its stock soaring 22% after reporting staggering AI server orders and a record $43 billion backlog, providing tangible proof of robust AI infrastructure demand. The crypto market mirrored the risk-off sentiment, with Bitcoin falling below $66,000 and Ethereum losing the $2,000 level. Conversely, safe-haven assets rallied; gold approached its all-time high and silver surged 19% for the month. The core question unsettling markets is whether stubborn inflation is a temporary setback or a sign of its return, potentially forcing the Fed to delay rate cuts or even consider hiking again. This uncertainty threatens highly valued tech stocks and leveraged assets, as the market moves from narrative-driven growth to a focus on profitability and tangible returns.

Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid Takes a Dig at Rate Cut, Will Cryptocurrencies Benefit?

Kansas City Federal Reserve President Jeffrey Schmid supports maintaining the current lending rate, citing strong economic growth and persistent inflation. He argues that keeping rates high is necessary to curb spending and prevent inflation from rising further. Recent positive job data, including a drop in unemployment, supports the likelihood of a rate pause in the upcoming March 2026 meeting. While lower interest rates typically encourage investment in riskier assets like cryptocurrencies, the current high-rate environment may lead investors toward safer alternatives. Major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently trading below key thresholds, though some institutions remain optimistic about the sector's long-term prospects.

Strong jobs report shakes the market – Could Bitcoin drop below $60K next?

The strong January U.S. jobs report, which far exceeded expectations, has significantly impacted market sentiment and expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. The probability of a near-term cut fell sharply, increasing volatility. This shift is particularly relevant for Bitcoin, which dipped following the data release. The article argues this reinforces the importance of the upcoming March FOMC meeting in setting the tone for risk assets. Technically, Bitcoin is described as fragile, trapped in a volatile range between $65k and $70k. It has repeatedly failed to turn key resistance levels into support, putting pressure on its current floor. This setup, combined with the macro uncertainty over interest rates, reduces the incentive for short-term holders to remain invested. The mounting headwinds increase the likelihood of a wave of selling (capitulation), which could break the $65k support level and put the $60k threshold at risk.

US Jobs Data Clarifies Fed Rate Cut Stand, Crypto Prices Fumble Further

US jobs data for January 2026 exceeded expectations, with nonfarm payrolls rising by 130,000—significantly above the 55,000 forecast—and unemployment dipping to 4.3%. The strong report reduced the likelihood of a Federal Reserve rate cut in March, with rates expected to remain between 3.50% and 3.75% until at least June. While stocks and bonds reacted positively, the crypto market declined slightly, with its total cap falling to $2.3 trillion. Bitcoin traded around $67,000, with concerns it may drop below $65,000. Major altcoins showed mixed movements. The strong economic data may further dampen investor appetite for riskier assets like cryptocurrencies.

Fed’s March rate cut could push the U.S. dollar down 10% – Is crypto at risk?

The U.S. dollar (DXY) has been declining, falling 9.4% in 2025 and another 1.4% in early 2026, returning to 2022 levels—a year marked by a 65% crypto market crash. This year, crypto has already dropped 24%, reflecting investor caution tied to the dollar's performance. Expectations of a March Fed rate cut have risen, with probability increasing to 21.2%, potentially driving the DXY down another 10%. While a weaker dollar typically benefits risk assets like crypto, record U.S. debt payments and China's Treasury sell-offs are creating liquidity stress. These factors may offset positive effects of rate cuts, posing headwinds for crypto's H2 rally despite potential dollar weakness.
