Crypto markets tumbled after yesterday\u2019s Fed statement revealed that policymakers now expect a single rate cut this year.<\/p>\n

\n

Crypto markets dropped on Thursday despite SEC Chair Gary Gensler saying that Ethereum ETFs will likely be approved by \u201cthe end of the summer\u201d in testimony<\/a> given to a subcommittee of the Senate Appropriations Committee on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin and Ethereum traded around 4% lower, while Solana dropped 7%, according to CoinGecko data<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The SEC has already granted initial approval to several Ethereum ETF issuers, including VanEck and BlackRock. Once their pending S-1 forms are approved, these new ETFs can begin trading.<\/p>\n

The bearish price action comes in spite of recent economic data indicating easing U.S. inflation. The producer price index (PPI), which assesses what wholesalers pay for raw materials, declined <\/a>by 0.2% in May. Economists polled by Dow Jones had anticipated a PPI increase of 0.1%. The report came on the heels of May\u2019s consumer price index (CPI) figures, released Thursday, which showed slower growth than anticipated.<\/p>\n

Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe, founder and CEO of MN Trading, expects Bitcoin to rally.<\/p>\n

“PPI data is out,” he said<\/a>. “This is ideal for potential rate cuts, which I expect will lead to a positive market reaction for Bitcoin.”<\/p>\n

Data from CoinGlass shows<\/a> that over 61,156 traders were liquidated in the past 24 hours, for a total of $198.72 million.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, QCP Capital shared a positive outlook on U.S. financial policy for the rest of 2024.<\/p>\n

“FED’s dot plot remains ambiguous, making it challenging to predict whether officials prefer one or two rate cuts this year,” the firm wrote on its Telegram channel. “However, we anticipate a rate cut in September, with the FED likely adopting a wait-and-see approach for subsequent meetings in November and December.”<\/p>\n

In the broader financial markets, the S&P 500 traded 0.2% higher, while the Nasdaq Composite increased by 0.6%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 0.4%.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
