However, investors and crypto enthusiasts have not lost hope that the bull run is over, with all eyes now fixed on September. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>One important event that could act as a <\/span><span>major<\/span><span> catalyst this month is the potential lowering of the interest rates in the United States. Less than two weeks ago, Jerome Powell, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-explodes-as-fed-chair-powell-opens-the-door-for-rate-cuts-in-september\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span>hinted<\/span><\/a><span> at his speech in Jackson Hole that the benchmark might indeed <\/span><span>be decreased<\/span><span> before the end of the year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The move (if implemented) will make money-borrowing cheaper and is likely to increase the interest in risk-on assets (such as BTC). Currently, the rates are in the range of 4.25% \u2013 4.5% and the last time they <\/span><span>were lowered<\/span><span> was in December 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The Fed\u2019s next FOMC meeting <\/span><span>is scheduled<\/span><span> for September, and according to Polymarket, there is an 83% probability that the percentage will <\/span><span>be decreased<\/span><span> by 0.25%. The odds of a more drastic drop by half a percent are a mere 3.6%, while \u201cno change\u201d is estimated at 13%.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Interest-rates-.png\"><\/a>Fed Decision in September, Source: Polymarket<\/p>\n<p><span>We move on to the amount of BTC stored on crypto exchanges, which, a few days ago, plummeted to a new seven-year low.
