Trader Notes:

Trader KillaXBT said Bitcoin’s pre-event decline reflects expectations that the Clarity Act could fail and the Fed could hike rates, suggesting selling after the announcements could instead mark a local bottom.

Bitfinex noted markets have dramatically shifted from expecting rate cuts three months ago to pricing a 93.5% chance of a hike, yet Bitcoin continues to hold its range lows.

The bigger question is whether the Fed signals a one-off hike or the start of a longer tightening cycle.
