Key Points:
Bitcoin rallied against the $36,000 mark on Thursday, continuing its week-long rally. The world’s largest digital asset by market cap is now changing hands for $35,604, up 3.46% in the past 24 hours. The global cryptocurrency market cap also saw an increase, rising to $1.32 trillion, a rise of 3.63% in the last 24 hours, as shown by CoinMarketCap.
This rally comes after the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to leave its benchmark fed funds rate range steady at 5.25%-5.50%. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell mentioned during the post-FOMC press conference that the run-up in U.S. Treasury yields has tightened financial conditions. However, he also left the option open for an additional rate hike if necessary.
Tighter financial and credit conditions for households and businesses are likely to weigh on economic activity, hiring, and inflation. The extent of these effects remains uncertain. The Committee remains highly attentive to inflation risks.
