A 0.50% Fed Rate Cut Could Raise Alarm for Bitcoin, 10X Research Warns

10x Research suggests that if the Federal Reserve (Fed) cuts interest rates by 50 basis points (bps) next week, it may signal economic worry instead of reassurance. A 50 bps rate cut may imply heightened economic concerns and lead investors to scale back exposure to risk assets like bitcoin and stocks. While traders currently see a less than 30% chance of a 50 bps rate cut next week, the consensus among traditional market experts is that the Fed is unlikely to start with such a significant cut. The start of the rate-cutting cycle does not always have a stimulative effect on asset prices, and there is speculation about whether the rate cut has already been priced into bitcoin's uptrend.
