Most people think the FOMC rate decision


moves $BTC.
They're wrong.
🟢 Here's what actually moves crypto:
The dot plot — a chart published 4x per year
showing where all 19 Fed members
expect rates to be.
The rate decision is priced in weeks ahead.
The dot plot cannot be front-run.
It drops today at 20:00 CET.
Example with live data:
→ Current median dot: 1 cut in 2026
→ Shifts to 2 cuts = bullish for $BTC
→ Shifts to 0 cuts = immediate sell-off
January 2026: Fed held rates as expected.
$BTC still dropped 7.3% in 48 hours.
The surprise was in the dots — not the decision.
🔖 Save this before 20:00 CET tonight.
After today — will you track the dot plot
or just the rate? 👇
