Binance Research Highlights Fed’s Potential Impact on Crypto Market Rebound
The cryptocurrency market has seen significant volatility recently, with a 25.9% drop in total market capitalization from January highs, wiping out approximately $1 trillion in value. This decline mirrors trends in the equities market, as both asset classes face reduced demand and broad selloffs.

However, Binance Research suggests that the Federal Reserve’s response to current economic conditions could spark a rebound in crypto, positioning it as a potential hedge against inflation.
