Economic Stimulus
Building on bitcoin's volatility after the Federal Reserve's December 2025 rate cut—which spiked prices above $94,000—crypto markets in early 2026 are buzzing with optimism. Traders are embracing the mantra 'Run it hot,' betting on bold Fed actions under pressure from President Donald Trump. Recent surges to nearly $95,000 have yielded to drops amid geopolitical concerns, but expectations of further rate cuts and asset purchases fuel hopes for a boom, with analysts predicting bitcoin could hit $200,000 or $1 million by early next year.
