US Federal Reserve (FED)

The United States Federal Reserve (Fed) proposed, on September 24, 2026, the repayment of stablecoins within two business days for the issuers it supervises. The project provides for exceptions and remains subject to consultation. Therefore, this deadline does not yet constitute an obligation applicable to all dollar stablecoins.

The 50, 100, and 200-day moving averages of bitcoin are about to regain a fully bullish alignment for the first time since June 2025. However, the signal is not yet confirmed and its history shows that it can precede both a strong rise and a quickly interrupted move.

The cryptocurrency market is going through a particular moment as the US Federal Reserve has just raised its rates. This decision, the first since 2023, triggered only a limited reaction on bitcoin. On Thursday, investors are watching the next steps of US monetary policy and their potential effect on risky assets. Between bond yields, the dollar, and inflation, the context remains tense. Yet, crypto prices show relative stability, while some altcoins display more marked movements.

The crypto market is retracing a scenario recently observed during the previous monetary tightening cycle. After the Federal Reserve's first rate hike in more than three years, bitcoin is evolving in a configuration reminiscent of 2022. At that time, its decline preceded the March decision, followed by a temporary rebound and then a new drop. However, the market's maturity limits this comparison. The coming weeks will allow us to observe whether this historical parallel maintains a clear scope.

Bitcoin heads into the Fed decision under pressure, with markets pricing in a rate hike and traders bracing for Warsh’s signals.

The question is not settled. The Federal Reserve decides on its rates on September 16, 2026, and the market is divided: the probability of a hike has fallen back to around 50%, after exceeding 60%, following more cautious remarks from a Fed governor. The European Central Bank could also raise its rates this month. As a result, bitcoin (BTC) drifts without direction: around $79,600 on September 7, just under $80,000, after a low of $76,700 on September 5 and a brief return above $80,000, according to CoinGecko.

Bitcoin started September below 78000 dollars after a 25% rise in August, its best monthly performance since November 2024. Indeed, this entry into the month called "Rektember" revives an unfavorable seasonality. Bitcoin loses on average about 3% in September since 2013. In 2026, the main risk however does not come from the calendar but from the Federal Reserve. Markets now anticipate a possible rate increase starting September 16.

The Fed could raise its rates in September. The scenario is already worrying Bitcoin, gold, and bond markets since Kevin Warsh's firm speech at Jackson Hole. However, Fed Funds contracts still assign only a 58% probability to a hike. This is far from the 90% generally associated with an almost certain decision.

On July 29, 2026, the Fed froze its rates by keeping them unchanged between 3.50% and 3.75%. Between market relief and sharp criticism, find out why this decision could change everything for the crypto market.

The debate on the future of digital money takes a new turn in the United States. The US Senate has passed a bill blocking CBDCs until 2030, providing a new political advantage to Bitcoin and decentralization advocates. While Washington limits central bank digital currencies, Europe accelerates with the digital euro, revealing two opposing visions of the financial future.

Kevin Warsh's first Fed meeting: the statement and economic forecasts alter the game, but rates stay the same. a hawkish shift that might completely alter American monetary policy.

The US Congress recently outlawed CBDCs until 2030, but not in the way you might think, in a bill pertaining to housing! Who among Trump, Republicans, and Democrats is truly terrified of the digital dollar?

Gold was supposed to shine under the bombs, silver was supposed to play the bodyguard. Failed: the Fed comes out with its club, markets sell everything, and bitcoin also takes a hit.

Trump imposes Kevin Warsh on the FED under political pressure, while markets and crypto already fear a violent monetary turbulence.

Powell keeps rates frozen, markets sweat, and crypto slides quietly. Oil rises, inflation bites, and the Fed watches calmly while investors wonder who really controls the game now.

Kevin Warsh moves closer to a key Senate hearing, but administrative blockages, political tensions, and an investigation targeting Jerome Powell slow his appointment to lead the Federal Reserve.

A secret meeting between the Fed and the Treasury, an AI model capable of hacking banking systems, and risks that could shake the global economy. Anthropic becomes an absolute security problem for regulators and banks.

Donald Trump crossed a new red line by demanding that the Fed hold an emergency meeting to immediately lower interest rates. "Even a third-grade student would know," he said. Between political pressure and economic stakes, this statement could trigger a seismic shift in the markets.

Warsh likes Bitcoin, hates high rates, and frequents Stanford. Senators, meanwhile, like investigations and blockades. Trump is keeping his fingers crossed.

Senators wanted housing. The anti-CBDC crowd shoved their crusade in. The Fed is muzzled. China is rejoicing. Crypto enthusiasts applaud. Nobody saw it coming.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market posted modest gains over the past 24 hours, even as fresh U.S. labor data complicated expectations for near-term rate cuts. January’s jobs report showed that hiring remained firm, but growth across several sectors appeared restrained. Markets had hoped for weaker data to strengthen the case for monetary easing. Instead, traders were left facing mixed signals.

Markets may be mispricing how sharply U.S. interest rates could fall if Kevin Warsh becomes the next chair of the Federal Reserve. A new forecast points to rapid and sizable rate cuts—an outcome that could weaken the dollar and reignite risk assets, including Bitcoin.

US Bitcoin spot ETFs saw 1.875 billion dollars leave over eight trading days as Bitcoin consolidates and the Fed holds interest rates steady, highlighting cautious investor sentiment.

While the Fed is buying time, the dollar is nosediving. And while Trump congratulates himself, bitcoin is smiling. The global economy, much less so...

Bitcoin has extended its decline following a sharp market shock in October, while traditional safe-haven assets continue to climb. Data from on-chain analytics and price movements suggest investors are withdrawing funds from crypto and shifting toward assets seen as more stable during periods of uncertainty. A falling stablecoin supply has added to concerns that a broader market recovery may take longer to materialize.

Kevin Hassett has withdrawn from consideration to lead the U.S. Fed, narrowing the field in a leadership contest increasingly shaped by political and legal pressure. President Donald Trump has made clear that he prefers Hassett to remain in his current White House role. And this stance has effectively removed him from contention and reshaped expectations around the Fed’s next chair.

While the US Supreme Court plays the role of economic arbitrator, Bitcoin itself meditates at $90,000, like a tired crypto king waiting for a judge to revive its digital crown.
