US Fed Slashes Interest Rates by 25 BPS: How Will Bitcoin’s Price React?
2025/09/18 02:05
In line with most expectations and its hint last month, the US Federal Reserve made the first interest rate cut for 2025, reducing it by 25 bps.
Most market commentators believed crypto and the rest of the financial markets had already priced in this cut, so it would be interesting to follow how BTC will react in the following hours and days.
Recall that the primary cryptocurrency exploded in late August during and after Jerome Powell’s speech from Jackson Hole, when the Fed chair hinted that the US central bank would finally cut the rates.
Experts anticipated a 25 bps rate reduction during the subsequent FOMC meeting, which took place yesterday and today.
BTC had climbed in the past several days in anticipation of the Fed’s announcement and even jumped to a four-week peak of $117,200 earlier today. However, it slumped in the following hours by almost two grand.
So far, its reaction to the actual interest rate reduction has been rather muted, as it continues to trade at around $116,000, where it was minutes before the announcement.
If that continues to be the case in the following few days, it would prove the theory that the markets had already priced in this rate cut.

Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts?
The post Crypto News: Donald Trump-Aligned Fed Governor To Speed Up Fed Rate Cuts? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In recent crypto news, Stephen Miran swore in as the latest Federal Reserve governor on September 16, 2025, slipping into the board’s last open spot right before the Federal Open Market Committee kicks off its two-day rate discussion. Traders are betting heavily on a 25-basis-point trim, which would bring the federal funds rate down to 4.00%-4.25%, based on CME FedWatch Tool figures from September 15, 2025. Miran, who’s been Trump’s top economic advisor and a supporter of his trade ideas, joins a seven-member board where just three governors come from Democratic picks, according to the Fed’s records updated that same day. Crypto News: Miran’s Background and Quick Path to Confirmation The Senate greenlit Miran on September 15, 2025, with a tight 48-47 vote, following his nomination on September 2, 2025, as per a recent crypto news update. His stint runs only until January 31, 2026, stepping in for Adriana D. Kugler, who stepped down in August 2025 for reasons not made public. Miran earned his economics Ph.D. from Harvard and worked at the Treasury back in Trump’s first go-around. Afterward, he moved to Hudson Bay Capital Management as an economist, then looped back to the White House in December 2024 to head the Council of Economic Advisers. There, he helped craft Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” approach, aimed at fixing trade gaps with China and the EU. He wouldn’t quit his White House gig, which irked Senator Elizabeth Warren at the September 7, 2025, confirmation hearings. That limited time frame means Miran gets to cast a vote straight away at the FOMC session starting September 16, 2025. The full board now features Chair Jerome H. Powell (Trump pick, term ends 2026), Vice Chair Philip N. Jefferson (Biden, to 2036), and folks like Lisa D. Cook (Biden, to 2028) and Michael S. Barr…
