What this means for Bitcoin
Renowned Crypto trader Bob Loukas has recorded market sentiment on X on X and Writing: “I am starting to think that we are on our way to a recession or bear market, perhaps a milder, but it probably looks. […] We have to take it seriously. That said, I think it’s time to leave the habit of ‘buy the dip’ habit on which we leaned during the bullmarkt. […] It may not be a disaster, but too much focusing on potential profits can mean that they overlook real risks. […] Bonds seem like a good gamble, capital must flow somewhere. “
With regard to Bitcoin, Loukas underlines The difficult situation for investor with regard to Trump’s Pro-BTC policy: Bitcoin’s tricky instinct says it is struggling, but I can see that it keeps as a kind of digital gold, especially because the administration seems to want it to succeed, outside trade policy. Perhaps there is some bias in that last explanation. “
Aksel Kibar (@TechCharts), a chartered market technician and former fund manager, briefly confirmed Loukas’ position by commenting, “agreed”.

In the meantime, LondonCryptoclub (@LDNCRYPTOCLUB) has brought new guidelines to the attention of UBS Global Wealth Management, which now expects the Federal Reserve to lower the rates with 75-100 BPS to the rest of 2025.
The analyst writes Via X: “This is a kind of key for Bitcoin. If the Fed treats induced inflation as ‘passing’ by rate [… ] and focuses on supporting growth, then real rates rather than lower […] And Bitcoin will fly. The financial circumstances are currently relaxed with lower dollars and yields (although the credit spreads keep an eye on). […] Bitcoin Front runs liquidity […] Ultimately, this all ends with the FED that is forced to be the liquidity providers of the last resort […] Bitcoin will end considerably higher this year. Only the path becomes a very volatile and turbulent. “
Macro analyst Alex Krüger (@kruergermacro) warned about the interplay between monetary relaxation and recession risk: “Fed cuts without recession are usually bullish. Fed cuts with recession are usually bearish. This was an important talk point in 2024.”
Powell’s speech: a crucial moment
In the light of the unexpected rates of President Trump, Friday’s planned comments by the Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell have taken renewed urgency. Powell had previously indicated that monetary policy remains restrictive, given the persistence of inflation above the target of 2% of the FED. Nevertheless, rates introduce a potential double bond: higher costs for consumers who could further stimulate inflation, in addition to a resistance to economic growth that makes the prospects of the labor market more difficult.
Andy Brenner of Natalliance Securities described the speech as possibly ‘one of the most important Powell speeches in three years’. The Fed chair will speak at 11:25 am.
At the time of the press, BTC traded at $ 83,197.
