币界网报道：The Federal Reserve maintained its benchmark interest rate, aligning with market expectations, as inflation cools but stagflation concerns emerge amid slowing U.S. growth. Fed Chair Jerome Powell emphasized a "disinflationary trend" while noting strong job gains and consumer spending, allowing policymakers to keep rates elevated. Markets now anticipate a potential rate cut no earlier than September, with CME FedWatch indicating a 62% probability of easing at the September FOMC meeting. Crypto markets remained subdued, with Bitcoin hovering near $105,000. Analysts suggest a hawkish Fed stance could still benefit Bitcoin as a hedge against economic uncertainty, with global easing potentially driving liquidity into crypto. However, seasonal factors like lower summer trading volumes and options market caution may limit near-term gains.
