U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen recently publicly stated that the Federal Reserve should consider the possibility of further interest rate cuts. This remark immediately drew widespread market attention — not only from the traditional financial sector but also from the cryptocurrency market, which is feeling the shift in policy direction.



From a macro perspective, expectations of rate cuts often imply increased liquidity. When the pressure of the US dollar's depreciation rises and borrowing costs decrease, investors typically seek higher-yielding assets, including digital assets like BTC and ETH. Historical experience shows that a loose monetary policy cycle is often accompanied by an increase in risk assets.

However, it is important to note that a policy shift is not an overnight event. The market is still digesting signals from various sources, and the actual rate cut actions will require waiting for an official Federal Reserve decision. For traders, this phase is full of opportunities but also requires cautious risk management. Keeping a close eye on subsequent economic data and policy announcements is essential to better grasp the market rhythm.

Is there another rate cut expectation? The last time I heard this was when I was trying to buy the dip at a high point, with technicals in complete disarray, and I still had to wait for policy measures to rescue the market.

The expectation of interest rate cuts sounds good, but it depends on whether the Federal Reserve dares to act—words and actual actions are two different things.

Interest rate cuts are coming? Optimistic, but can't go all in... Let's wait until the dust settles.

It's another leak from Yellen. The market is really too easily driven by emotions... Expectations of rate cuts = increased liquidity. This logic has been repeated for years and still keeps coming up as if it's a new discovery. Let's wait until actual rate cuts happen. Right now, those who are all-in are just gambling with a gambler's mentality. On-chain data simply can't reflect the probability of these policies being implemented.

Lower interest rates? Here we go again. The Federal Reserve says one thing but does another. Let's wait until the official announcement.

The expectation of interest rate cuts... to be honest, I'm a bit tired of waiting. Just a word or two makes the crypto circle boil, but I really want to see when the real action will actually happen.

It's another leak from Yellen, and the crypto circle is getting restless again. Expectations of rate cuts = money printing = liquidity overflow. I can say this logic with my eyes closed, but the actual implementation still depends on the Federal Reserve's approval. Don't get caught off guard. The easing cycle is indeed favorable for risk assets. BTC has a chance to surge this time; it all depends on how the subsequent data performs. Talking about opportunities and risks at the same time—ultimately, you still have to bear the risks yourself. Being cautious is not wrong.

The expectation of interest rate cuts has been somewhat exaggerated, to be honest. When the Federal Reserve actually takes action, then it will be meaningful. Starting to go all-in now might be a bit too optimistic, guys.
