- Federal Reserve denies implementing quantitative easing despite Treasury purchases.
- Crypto markets see volatility amid liquidity perceptions.
- Treasury purchases framed as non-QE by Fed.
Federal Reserve Governor Michelle Bowman clarified on December 19, 2025, that the Federal Reserve has not engaged in quantitative easing through asset purchases, countering earlier reports.
Bowman’s statement challenges perceptions of Fed’s actions as non-QE, potentially impacting cryptocurrency markets like Bitcoin and Ethereum with ongoing debates about liquidity effects.
Federal Reserve’s $400 Billion Treasury Moves Explained
Federal Reserve Governor Michelle Bowman confirmed that the Fed is not undertaking quantitative easing. Fed’s actions involve Treasury purchases reported at approximately $400 billion, intended to manage market liquidity without formal QE measures. As Michelle Bowman clarified, “The Fed has not implemented quantitative easing through asset purchases.”
The announcement suggests that these Treasury purchases are meant to support liquidity in the market. Cryptocurrency assets like BTC and ETH could see speculative liquidity impacts despite the Fed’s denial of QE. Such actions typically reassure market stability without direct QE labeling.
Crypto markets reacted with volatility, as analysts debated the implications of these Treasury measures. Coinbase Institutional stated the purchases resemble “stealth QE,” potentially benefiting major cryptocurrencies. The debate continues among market participants on the actual liquidity impact.
Crypto Market Reactions Amid Treasury Purchases’ Impact
Did you know? The Federal Reserve’s 2019 repo interventions aimed to increase market liquidity, similar to recent Treasury purchases, despite not being labeled as quantitative easing.
Bitcoin’s current price stands at $87,084.42 with a market cap of $1.73 trillion, as per CoinMarketCap. It represents approximately 58.97% market dominance. Over the last 90 days, Bitcoin experienced a 24.82% decline in price, with a trading volume of about $52.88 billion.
The Coincu research team suggests that recent Treasury purchases may moderately impact crypto market dynamics through perceived liquidity shifts. Historical patterns indicate market stability, but the absence of direct QE involvement keeps speculation alive.
