The 10-year TIPS yield hovered <a href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/REAINTRATREARAT10Y\">around<\/a> 1.7%, while five-year forward inflation expectations sat <a href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/T5YIFR\/?utm_source=chatgpt.com\">near<\/a> 2.2%, signaling softer real rates and anchored inflation.<\/p>\n<p>The dollar index was near 99, down notably from early-year peaks. Together, those trends set the stage for a liquidity-friendly reaction once the Fed leaned dovish.<\/p>\n<p>Chair Powell\u2019s comments confirmed that the Fed sees policy as \u201csufficiently restrictive\u201d and that it\u2019s prepared to adjust QT to maintain \u201cample reserves.\u201d That guidance matters more for risk assets than the rate cut itself.<\/p>\n<p>Research consistently shows that forward guidance and balance-sheet expectations move long-term real yields more than the policy rate, influencing risk appetite and ETF demand. A pause, or even talk of one, lowers the opportunity cost of holding Bitcoin, weakens the dollar, and encourages inflows into spot BTC ETFs.<\/p>\n<p>ETF data support the link. US spot Bitcoin funds logged roughly $446 million in net inflows in the week heading into the decision, reversing mid-month softness.<\/p>\n<p>Previous FOMC cuts have seen similar follow-through: softer real yields and a weaker dollar tend to coincide with stronger ETF creations over the next 48 hours.<\/p>\n<p>With real yields drifting lower and the dollar easing today, traders will be watching whether that pattern repeats into settlement at the end of the week.<\/p>\n<p>The Fed\u2019s balance sheet now sits near $6.6 trillion, down from a $9 trillion peak, and reserves total about $3 trillion. Powell\u2019s October 14 speech laid out this mix and framed QT\u2019s \u201cendgame\u201d as a live debate, another signal that liquidity tightening is nearly done.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That\u2019s the channel Bitcoin trades: not the nominal funds rate, but whether system reserves are rising or shrinking.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As QT winds down, marginal dollars flow back into bank and market liquidity, indirectly fueling risk-taking and crypto demand.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line is that with RRP balances drained and QT nearing its conclusion, liquidity guidance and not the 25 bp cut will steer real yields and the dollar, which are the key drivers of Bitcoin\u2019s short-term direction.<\/p>\n<p>If Powell\u2019s tone stays dovish and the QT pause narrative strengthens, expect real yields to slip, the dollar to soften, and ETF inflows to pick up: a constructive setup for BTC.<\/p>\n<p>If he backpedals toward inflation vigilance, those gains will likely fade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal Reserve cut rates by 25 basis points today and hinted that its balance-sheet runoff may soon end, arguably the bigger story for Bitcoin.
