On the second day of returning to work, the market sentiment became a bit uncontrollable, and this assignment became difficult to complete. The performance of the US stock market was good before and at the opening, but BTC has been falling all the way. This is not just due to poor liquidity, any market movement will first be reflected in the cryptocurrency field. The first thing that happened today was the increasing risk of war between the United States and Iran, which led to a rise of over 4% in US oil prices. And that's not all, there were minutes of the Federal Reserve meeting in the early hours of the morning. To be honest, I don't think it makes much sense to say anything now. The key battle is still after June, but the market still reacted to this report. The report said that the economic outlook for the United States will be better than expected at the last meeting, and there are signs of stability in the labor market, but consumer price inflation is still high. The result was that except for Miran and Waller, who advocated a 25 basis point interest rate cut, the other ten members decided to hold their ground. Judging from the current situation, if Trump wants to master the Federal Reserve after Powell goes offline, he should strive for more seats in the voting committee. It is true that from the meeting minutes, the voting committee still agreed that if inflation continues to decline, the Federal Reserve can continue to cut interest rates, but this process may not be fast. Looking back at Bitcoin's data, as the Asian holiday season gradually comes to an end, trading volume and turnover rates begin to increase, making it more difficult to control price suppression, especially when the market experiences negative sentiment, which amplifies the magnitude of the decline. Now, the cryptocurrency market is indeed struggling. Today, Coinbase CEO Brian stated that BTC's recent decline is more driven by psychological factors rather than fundamentals. Brian stated that this decline is likely temporary and pointed out that Coinbase is repurchasing stocks and buying more Bitcoin at lower prices. @bitget VIP, Lower rates and more generous benefits
