AI Summary
The FOMC voted 12-0 to raise its target range by a quarter point to 3.75%-4%, and the median dot now shows 4.1% at end-2026 versus 3.8% in the June projection — an upward shift in the expected path rather than a single hike in isolation. Bitcoin printed $76,499.99 five minutes after the release and round-tripped the entire move within half an hour, a sign that crypto is trading the terminal-rate path and dollar liquidity rather than the headline decision, leaving BTC's beta tethered to UST yields and DXY. Watch whether higher 2026 dot pricing sticks in front-end yields and spot ETF flows; Zcash's run to $1,383 looks like idiosyncratic rotation, not broad risk appetite, and would need follow-through in majors to confirm a liquidity-driven bid.
As a Crypto signal, watch whether it changes price action, volatility, or flows around BTC, ZEC.
