This comes after the entity began to close its Bitcoin shorts as the crypto market stabilized.  This trader became popular after it correctly shorted the market before the so-called “Trump tariff crash.” As last reported, the trader pocketed $2.38 million after closing $86.6 million in short positions earlier this month.

However, some experts suggest it could be another insider whale who opened a $255 million long position in BTC and ETH earlier this month, just after Donald Trump confirmed a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping during the APEC summit.

Meanwhile, analysts believe this latest move could be another strategic play ahead of tomorrow’s Fed Rate Cut announcement. A Fed rate cut decision could inject fresh volatility into both traditional and digital asset markets.

Fed Rate Cut Looms Over Markets

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, which began today (October 28) and concludes tomorrow, is expected to produce a key policy update that could affect the crypto market.

Investors are on edge as Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell prepares to deliver his remarks at 2:30 PM ET on Wednesday. He is expected to share the central bank’s stance on employment, inflation, and the state of the economy in 2026.

The October session is particularly significant following the Fed’s first rate cut of the year. They implemented a 25-basis-point reduction that brought the benchmark range down to 4.0%–4.25%. Notably, 98% of Polymarket traders are betting on a possible 25bps cut tomorrow.  

The FOMC, which comprises 12 voting members, meets 8 times a year to determine interest rates and conduct open-market operations. Its decisions have an impact on stock prices, mortgage rates, and cryptocurrency liquidity, among other global markets.

Experts are interpreting the Trump Insider’s aggressive long as a calculated bet that the Fed rate cut cycle will push capital back into risk assets. Lower rates typically weaken the U.S. dollar and encourage flows into alternative investments such as Bitcoin.
