Why Is Crypto Going Up – Dovish Fed, No Rate Cut, Wall Street Pepe Presale Hits $64.5M

2025-1-31 15:02

The year’s first Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting concluded on a bullish note.

In short: no rate cuts, dovish FED, and an improved labor market situation.

In response, Bitcoin ($BTC) rallied to $105K for the first time since last Friday, and the cumulative crypto market cap rose from $3.45T to $3.6T.

Let’s unpack the FOMC meeting highlights and what they mean for crypto.

Fed Chooses Economic Growth Over Battling Inflation

As usual, the FOMC touched on key economic indicators like employment rate, inflation, and GDP growth and discussed ways to enhance monetary policy.

Key takeaways:

Unemployment rate has decreased significantly Inflation is somewhat elevated but under control Interest rates will remain at the 4.25%-4.5% level

Meanwhile, Trump demands more immediate rate cuts, pointing out that recent cuts weren’t sufficient to combat inflation. The Fed has historically been acting independently from the state head, but Trump believes the president ‘should at least be able to voice opinions.’

Overall, the Fed takes a dovish stance where it prioritizes economic growth and employment even if it means tolerating inflation above the target of 2%.

While there was a temporary uptick in the broader crypto market, overall, investor reaction was a nothing burger.

However, the lower-than-expected GDP growth of 2.3% might increase $BTC’s appeal as an inflation hedge in the long run.

Analysts highlight that $BTC now trades just 4% below its all-time high and is 8% above the range midpoint, which strengthens the upward trajectory.

Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) Raises $65M, Could It Dethrone the Original Pepe?

When the economy grows, investors are more willing to take on risks. This means the current meme coin bull run will continue well into 2025.

That’s good news for Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE), a presale that’s rapidly gaining momentum with $65M raised.

$WEPE now stands neck and neck with the best presale of 2024, Pepe Unchained ($PEPU), which generated $73M in funding and grew 63% last week. However, it took $PEPU nearly half a year to raise this amount versus $WEPE’s two months.

Wall Street Pepe’s goal is simple and relatable: to crush whales conspiring in insider groups and level the playing field.

$WEPE assembles an army of degen traders to share market insights and prove that anyone has a chance to win big in this new, equitable economy.

One $WEPE now costs $0.0003665 – this is the final price, as the presale will end in 16 days (or earlier, if tokens sell out quicker than expected).

After early adopters claim their tokens, $WEPE will list on major exchanges, which will likely boost its value due to added credibility and accessibility.

Dovish Fed Fuels Speculative Frenzy

The FOMC’s dovish outlook creates a favorable environment for speculative plays. This rising tide could lift many boats, including promising presales like Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE).

Its focus on community building and distrust of legacy whales resonate with many, as evident from such impressive fundraising numbers.

Meanwhile, we remind you that a broader bull run and strong fundamentals don’t yet guarantee returns. Always DYOR and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
