#FedRateCutPrediction


Hello friends;
There are only a few days left until the Fed's final interest rate decision of the year, and we can all sense how much the tension in the market has risen.
On one side, panicking investors; on the other, crowds waiting and wondering, "Will we turn things around this time?"
Frankly, right now what drives the market is not data but expectations.

The market is pricing in a 25 bps rate cut with an 84% probability. Under normal circumstances, this would be a clear positive signal, but in crypto, nothing works in isolation.
Especially in the recent weeks’ declines, we saw this: you can't construct a scenario without reading the Fed’s language, liquidity flow, and ETF pools together.

Here’s how I see the situation:
1. Liquidity base is recovering.
Stablecoin supply has started to expand again. This is always the first sign in every cycle. The logic of “if gunpowder is loaded, it will be fired somewhere” is still valid.
2. The ETF side is complicated but not negative.
Large outflows have stopped; inflows are weak but steady. This shows the market is pausing to catch its breath.
3. A sharp short-term rate cut pricing could create a “sell the news” event.
Markets usually play the uncertainty before the decision, not the decision itself.
So even if a cut happens, the initial reaction could be up → then a correction → the real move might happen a few days later.
4. The market’s psychology is still fragile.
We haven’t exited the Extreme Fear index. This is usually seen at bottoms, but it also sends this message: buyers are timid, sellers are weak. This creates a good ground for big players.

How would I approach this?
I don’t believe a rate cut alone will trigger a major rally, but considering the market’s rapid recent cleanup, the clearing of leverage, and the recovery in stablecoins, “short-term opportunities” may arise.
Rather than acting aggressively during big drops, it’s healthier to wait and see where the price settles after the decision is announced.

This meeting looks more like a compass that will set year-end direction rather than spark a major rally.
My expectation:
Rate cut + moderate statement → positive for January
Rate cut but hawkish tone → brief shake-up
No cut → sharp but short-lived market reaction

The best strategy in crypto is still the same:
Look at the data, not the emotion.
Because the Fed speaks and moves on, but liquidity always wins the game.

This is not investment advice.
