Fed’s Rate Cut Could Ignite Next Crypto Wave as Policy and Payments Innovation Align

-

We view the Fed’s anticipated 25-basis-point rate cut to 3.75%–4.00% as a potential liquidity catalyst for crypto markets.

Easing borrowing costs typically boost risk appetite, and this could channel fresh capital into assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, sparking 5–10% short-term rallies.

As investors seek higher returns, we may also see capital rotation from safer assets into major altcoins like SOL and XRP, reinforcing crypto’s appeal as both a growth play and inflation hedge.

Meanwhile, the Fed’s Payments Innovation Conference marks a crucial shift toward mainstream integration of stablecoins and digital assets into the US financial system.

The integration signals a maturing regulatory embrace that could catalyze institutional participation by streamlining master accounts for crypto firms, reducing barriers and unlocking billions in tokenized asset flows over the short term.

In the medium term, enhanced stablecoin utility for seamless US payments will reshape market structure toward hybrid TradFi-DeFi ecosystems, aligning closely with the broader industry vision of a universal financial ecosystem where users can access, trade, and move value seamlessly across both worlds.
