Bitcoin Price Set For $35,000 After US Fed Rate Hike Decision: Bloomberg
Strong sentiment in the crypto market is driving Bitcoin price to hold above the $28,000 level despite volatility amid the U.S. Federal Reserve FOMC meeting. BTC price trades at $28,260, up 2% in the past 24 hours after hitting a 9-month high of $28,527 on Monday. Bitcoin is recording its biggest quarterly gain since 2021, with a 70% rally this quarter considering the Fed pivot this year and Bitcoin halving next year.
Investors anticipate Bitcoin hitting $30,000 after the Fed monetary policy decision due to the ongoing banking crisis. Analysts report Bitcoin slowly replacing Gold as most consider investing in Bitcoin as a hedge against woes in the U.S. and European banking sectors. The Federal Reserve’s balance sheet rising above $300 billion amid the banking crisis is pushing up Bitcoin and gold prices, explained Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone Group.
Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood reaffirmed her bullish stance on Bitcoin and claimed that crisis will attract more institutions towards Bitcoin. The closure of three banks by US regulators and the emergency takeover of Credit Suisse by rival UBS have destabilized the global banking industry.
