US stock futures indicate potential Bitcoin volatility
Bitcoin and Ethereum continued to decline on Sunday, with Bitcoin down nearly 1.8% to around $82,700 and Ethereum falling 2.5% to $1,889. U.S. stock futures also pointed lower ahead of the Federal Reserve's policy meeting. Traders are concerned about the Federal Reserve's interest rate outlook, with expectations that rates will remain steady this week. Recent inflation data has raised worries that the Fed may delay easing monetary policy, impacting risk assets like cryptocurrencies. Geopolitical tensions, including new tariffs announced by President Trump, are adding to market uncertainty. Despite a brief spike in Bitcoin prices following Trump's announcement of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, prices quickly reversed as no immediate budget was allocated for purchases.
