Has the Fed Got It Wrong? What It Means for Bitcoin #117

from Crypto Options Unplugged · host Deribit Exchange

In this week’s Crypto Options Unplugged, Imran Lakha and David Brickell break down the latest macro developments following the Federal Reserve meeting, examining why markets may have overreacted to the Fed’s seemingly hawkish stance and what falling oil prices, declining inflation expectations, and shifting real yields could mean for Bitcoin and risk assets.The discussion explores the rotation taking place beneath the surface of equity markets, questioning whether the AI trade is beginning to cool and if capital could gradually find its way back into crypto. The pair also analyse Bitcoin’s current market structure, options positioning, volatility, and why the asset may be in a bottoming process despite persistent bearish sentiment.The episode also dives into the growing concerns surrounding Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), the debate over its capital structure and preferred securities, and whether fears of a forced Bitcoin liquidation are justified. Finally, Imran and David discuss why patience, disciplined positioning, and avoiding leverage remain critical as investors prepare for the next phase of the crypto cycle.Deribit FZE does not accept UAE retail clients for derivatives and does not accept US clients and clients from restricted countries.#crypto #trading #cryptocurrencynews #podcast
