After several consecutive interest rate cuts, a streak that began in September, the United States Federal Reserve has pivoted on its strategy and has kept the rates steady between 3.5% and 3.75%.<\/p>\n

This decision, which was largely expected despite the decreasing inflation in the US, has failed to impact BTC\u2019s price, at least for now.<\/p>\n

The statement from the central bank reads<\/a> that the \u201cunemployment rate has shown some signs of stabilization,\u201d but warned that \u201cinflation remains somewhat elevated.\u201d<\/p>\n

This claim is rather controversial, given the fact that the CPI data in the country for December and November were lower than expected<\/a>. At the time, the POTUS used every opportunity to urge the Fed Chair Jerome Powell to continue cutting the rates.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the Fed said it remains committed to reaching a healthier 2% inflation over the longer run, a level not seen in years.<\/p>\n

\u201cUncertainty about the economic outlook remains elevated. The Committee is attentive to the risks to both sides of its dual mandate,\u201d continues the statement.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s price experienced more significant volatility earlier today, before the decision was made public. It surged past $90,000 on a couple of occasions, only to be rejected and driven south to $88,750 at one point. Nevertheless, it has remained stable above $89,000 after the Fed\u2019s pivot on the rate cuts was announced.<\/p>\n
