Federal Reserve official Raphael Bostic signaled a reduced outlook for rate cuts in 2025, reflecting growing economic uncertainty and persistent inflation. The revised path to monetary policy could have significant implications for financial markets, impacting both traditional assets and cryptocurrencies. Bostic’s move to one potential rate cut aligns with concerns about the trajectory of inflation, which he predicts will remain volatile and resistant to clear movement towards the 2% target. This shift in sentiment is attributed to a prolonged period of monetary restrictions that continue to affect market dynamics. 2025’s rate cuts are now seen as less frequent due to expectations of a slower pace of economic growth (1%-0.5%). As market response highlights a cautious approach, experts emphasize the evolving interest rate landscape and its impact on major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
