Forecasting Fed-Induced Price Swings in Bitcoin, Ether, Solana and XRP

When the Fed sneezes, crypto catches a cold—or rides a speculative fever. Here’s how top digital assets might react to the next policy shift.

The Bitcoin Hedge Play: Institutional money’s favorite volatility sponge soaks up rate cuts (or panics at hikes).

Ethereum’s Dual Game: Smart contracts don’t care about macro—until gas fees spike during flight-to-safety trades.

Solana’s Speed Trap: ‘The Nasdaq of crypto’ either moons on risk-on sentiment or craters when liquidity dries up.

XRP’s Wildcard: Ripple’s legal limbo means it dances to its own tune—when it’s not tripping over SEC headlines.

Bonus cynicism: Watch Wall Street ‘experts’ suddenly rediscover ‘macro fundamentals’—right after their algo trades execute.
