Why Bitcoin and Ethereum Are Decoupling From Fed Rate Decisions
from The Cryptocurrency Economy with Fexingo: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Digital Money Markets · host Fexingo
The Federal Reserve held rates steady on June 17, 2026, and Chairman Warsh signaled a potential hike later this year. Normally, that would rattle crypto markets. But Bitcoin barely budged while Ethereum actually ticked up half a percent. Lucas and Luna break down why the old correlation is breaking—and what it means for crypto investors who've been trading macro headlines. They look at the shift from rate-sensitive trading to network-specific catalysts, the role of the SpaceX IPO in draining speculative capital, and whether this decoupling is real or just a temporary pause. A focused 10-minute episode for anyone wondering why crypto isn't following the macro script anymore. #Bitcoin #Ethereum #FederalReserve #JeromeWarsh #RateDecision #CryptoMacro #Decoupling #Liquidity #SpaceXIPO #FOMC #InterestRates #CryptoMarket #BitcoinPrice #EthereumPrice #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CryptocurrencyEconomy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
