Bitcoin and Crypto Market Anticipates Significant Events
This week is filled with important events that could have a major impact on the Bitcoin and crypto market. From the price action of Bitcoin to decisions made by the US Federal Reserve (Fed), as well as landmark trials and influential conferences in the crypto industry, there are several developments that investors need to pay attention to.
#1 Bitcoin’s Potential Rise to $40,000
Bitcoin has recently shown impressive performance, reaching its highest weekly close since May 2022 with a 15% gain last week. The anticipation of a spot Bitcoin ETF has fueled bullish sentiment. According to technical analyst “Titan Of Crypto,” there may be more to come. He shared a chart suggesting that if certain conditions are met, such as a daily candle closing above a certain range, Bitcoin could quickly rise to $40,000.
#2 Fed Rate Decision and FOMC
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is scheduled to make its rate decision on Wednesday, November 1, 2023. Analysts expect the FOMC to maintain the target range for the federal funds rate. Market conditions have become more fragile compared to last year, so the Fed needs to carefully navigate their battle against inflation. While a hike in November is not expected, there is still speculation about a potential hike in December.
#3 Sam Bankman-Fried’s Trial Nears Conclusion
The high-profile trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, related to the collapse of the FTX exchange, is nearing its end. Bankman-Fried will continue his direct examination by his defense lawyer, presenting an alternative narrative to the testimonies against him. The government will then cross-examine him, and the jury is expected to make a decision by the end of next week.
#4 Solana Breakpoint Conference
The annual Breakpoint conference hosted by Solana is starting today in Amsterdam. The conference will feature key project leaders from the Solana ecosystem, as well as speakers from Stripe and Visa. In the past, Breakpoint has been a platform for significant announcements, and this year there is buzz around RNDR’s team and their upcoming launch of Render 2.0. The entire conference will be livestreamed.
