About FedFirst25BpsHikeSince23
The Fed raised rates 25bps to 3.75%-4.00%, first hike since July 2023 after five consecutive holds. Chair Walsh said inflation is 'too high and has lasted too long'. The dot plot shows 16 of 18 officials project at least one more hike before end-2026, pointing to a new tightening cycle. The Dow fell over 600 points, S&P 500 down around 0.4%, Nasdaq near flat. The 10-year yield above 5% keeps pressure on high-valuation assets. The White House is pushing for cuts, at odds with most Fed officials.

The Fed just ended three years of stillness. First hike since July 2023.
The FOMC voted 12-0 to raise the federal funds rate by 25bps, bringing the target range to 3.75%-4.00%. Chair Warsh said inflation is "too high and has been for too long." The market had largely priced it in, with hike odds near 93% by decision day after hot August inflation data helped flip expectations.
But the hike itself is not the story. The dot plot is.
The new median dot implies one more 25bps hike before year-end, putting December firmly in play. The updated projections:
· PCE inflation is now seen at 3.7% for end-2026, up from 3.6% in June
· Core PCE rose to 3.4%, and the Fed does not expect inflation back at 2% until 2029
· Unemployment was revised down to 4.1%, while 2026 GDP growth moved up to 2.3%
· The longer-run fed funds rate projection rose to 3.2%, keeping higher-for-longer in the frame
Behind the inflation problem is an energy shock tied to the Iran conflict, with oil back above $100 and diesel prices elevated. The White House wants lower rates. The Fed delivered the opposite.
The 10-year Treasury yield briefly crossed 5% before the decision, then pulled back toward 4.96%. In H1 2026, US spot BTC ETFs saw about $5.4B in net outflows as BTC fell from the mid-$90K area in January to the low-$60K area in May. The CLARITY Act also failed its Senate cloture vote 49-50 one day before the Fed, pulling a key regulatory catalyst off the table.
Bitcoin briefly popped after the announcement, then gave the move back. Nobody heard a Fed that thinks the job is finished. Warsh also avoided committing to a fixed path, keeping the next move data-dependent.
The Q4 setup: rates higher, oil elevated, yields near 5%, ETF demand fragile and regulatory progress stalled. That is not an easy soft-landing setup.
Which matters more for BTC into Q4: the dot plot, ETF flows, or regulatory uncertainty?

Last night, the Fed finally gave the market an answer.
A 25 bps rate hike was officially implemented, bringing the federal funds target range to 3.75%–4.00%. The September projections also leave the door open to further tightening, keeping pressure on risk assets.
But BTC did not crash.
Instead, it entered intense consolidation around the $75,000 area.
And this is exactly what I’m watching now:
The news itself isn’t the scary part.#DailyOrbit
This time it's really different.
Originally, the market was still betting on "no change," but in the past few days expectations suddenly reversed, and now the market has priced in a 25 basis point rate hike at a very high level.
On September 15-16, the Federal Reserve FOMC meeting will take place. What’s really worth watching is not "whether to raise rates," but: after the rate hike, will they continue to raise?#FOMCRateCallThisWeek #CLARITYVoteFails50-49 #AISafetyDebateEscalates
$ETH trades at 2,442.06 dollars, up 0.97%, holding firm just after the Fed's 25 basis point hike to 3.75%-4%.
Volume hit 543.9 million dollars, the highest among majors and even above BTC's 486.33 million, showing $ETH absorbed the hawkish shift better than expected.
With BTC only up 0.38%, ETH is outperforming despite tighter policy and rising Treasury yields. Watch whether this resilience holds once markets fully digest Warsh's rate path signals.

#FedFirst25BpsHikeSince23 The Fed finally moved again, raising rates by 25bps to 3.75%–4.00% after five straight holds 🏛️
What caught my attention wasn’t the hike itself, but the dot plot: 16 of 18 officials now expect at least one more increase before the end of 2026. That makes this feel less like a one-off adjustment and more like the possible start of another tightening phase.
The market reaction was telling. The Dow dropped over 600 points, while the Nasdaq stayed nearly flat. With the 10-year yield above 5%, expensive assets still have a difficult backdrop 📉
There’s also a clear gap between the Fed and the White House, which continues to push for lower rates. To me, the next inflation reports matter more than the political noise. Will they reinforce the Fed’s stance—or make this hike look overly cautious?
