Bitcoin, Ethereum Wobble as Fed Holds Rates Steady
Chair Kevin Warsh kept the federal funds rate at 3.5%–3.75% and offered no new signals on when cuts—or hikes—might come.
The top 3
- Largest Cryptocurrencies by Market Cap: Bitcoin (BTC) leads with a market capitalization ranging from approximately $1.289 trillion to $1.45 trillion, followed by Ethereum (ETH) at $237 billion to $258.4 billion, and Tether (USDT) at around $184 billion.
- Most Stable "Blue-Chip" Cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin (BTC) is considered the lowest-risk option due to its large market cap, established ETF infrastructure, and historical recovery, while Ethereum (ETH) is the second safest with its significant market cap and extensive DeFi ecosystem. Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) are also positioned as alternatives for daily transactions, offering some stability.
- Top Altcoins Showing Growth Potential: Solana (SOL) is recognized for its fast growth, institutional adoption, and strong position in the tokenization trend. Ondo (ONDO) is highlighted for its focus on tokenized real-world assets and institutional DeFi appeal, with potential for significant gains. Cardano (ADA) stands out as a research-driven Layer 1 with robust community support and considerable liquidity.
