This week, the Fed's interest rate decision is creating great expectations in the crypto market. The relationship between Bitcoin and the dollar has always been sensitive, but when you ask what interest policies mean, the answer is directly linked to liquidity. Interest rate hikes generally strengthen the dollar, which weakens risky assets. Conversely, declines increase risk appetite. Recently, there has been a lot of debate in the market about what this decision will mean. Some expect a dovish stance, while others look for signals of tightening. From a Bitcoin perspective, the volatility of the past weeks is directly related to Fed expectations. When the dollar index rises, the crypto market usually faces pressure. But this time, it could be different. As institutional interest increases, the impact of macro factors is somewhat changing. In short, this week will not only be about a rate decision but also a critical test for the market's direction. Monitoring the movements of related assets on Gate could be helpful.
