Fed Holds Rates; Powell Signals Fewer Cuts
Brady and John recap the Fed decision, Powell's hawkish tone, the dot plot, and implications for markets.
- SEC and CFTC jointly classify Bitcoin (and several crypto assets) as digital commodities, providing formal regulatory clarity and reducing institutional uncertainty
- Self-custodial wallet developers and Bitcoin miners gain relief from broker classification risk, removing a major regulatory overhang
- The Fed held rates steady; Powell struck a mildly hawkish tone, signaling fewer cuts and continued inflation concerns
- US national debt surpasses $39 trillion, with interest payments exceeding $1T annually—highlighting systemic fiscal instability
- Morgan Stanley files for a proprietary Bitcoin ETF, signaling long-term allocation expectations across wealth management
- MicroStrategy continues aggressive accumulation, now holding 761,000 BTC, reinforcing a structural demand floor
- Bitcoin shows resilience amid macro pressure, holding near $70K despite rising yields and geopolitical uncertainty
- Wealth inequality deepens, with the top 10% driving ~50% of spending—framed as a consequence of fiat monetary expansion
- China shuts down ~1.3 GW of mining capacity, but Bitcoin network adapts seamlessly via difficulty adjustment
- Additional industry signals: Kraken delays IPO, Blockfills bankruptcy surfaces, and continued policy momentum via Bitcoin Policy Institute
