Bitcoin Faces Critical Test Ahead of Fed Decision

Despite attempts to stabilize, the world’s largest cryptocurrency remains locked in a downward trend, hovering around the $106,000–$108,000 zone.

Matrixport, a digital asset research firm, cautioned that Bitcoin’s latest pullback may not be over. The company highlighted that seasonal pressures and lingering uncertainty around U.S. interest rate cuts could fuel further price swings.

While rate cuts are often perceived as a bullish driver for crypto, Matrixport warned that the path to looser monetary policy may prove uneven, reducing the likelihood of a smooth rebound.

Adding to the cautious outlook, 10X Research described $108,000 as a decisive battleground for Bitcoin’s next move. Analysts there argued that whether BTC can hold this level will shape the broader market trend, potentially signaling either the resumption of the bull run or the start of a deeper correction.
