Bitcoin Dominance Soars, Signaling Risk Aversion Ahead of FOMC

Bitcoin’s dominance has reached a four-year high, exceeding 65%, reflecting cautious investor sentiment as the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting approaches on May 7, 2025. This rise in Bitcoin’s market share coincides with anticipation for the FOMC decision, which is known to impact cryptocurrency volatility. The low volatility observed suggests impending price shifts. Experts attribute this trend to heightened risk aversion among investors who are strategically positioning themselves ahead of the upcoming FOMC meeting.
