\"Why<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The wider crypto market, led by Bitcoin (BTC), has recorded mild gains in the past 24 hours. The total crypto market cap surged by 1.2% to hover about $3.92 trillion on Wednesday, August 20, during the mid-North American session.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the fear of further choppy crypto markets remains palpable. For instance, Bitcoin\u2019s fear and greed index<\/a> has dropped from 56, which represents greed, to 44, often associated with fear and uncertainty, during the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n

What are the Key Factors Influencing the Midterm Crypto Market Outlook<\/h2>\n

The crypto market performance in the past few days has been heavily influenced by rising whales\u2019 on-chain activities and the economic outlook in the United States. Last week\u2019s hotter-than-expected inflation data has weighed down on traders\u2019 expectations of September\u2019s Fed rate cut.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wednesday\u2019s FOMC meeting minutes<\/a> indicate no signs of the Fed initiating a rate cut next month. According to market data from Kalshi, the odds of a 25 bps Fed rate cut in September dropped to 69 percent from 72 percent in the past 24 hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Kalshi<\/figure>\n

Meanwhile, Kalshi data shows more traders are betting on the Fed to maintain its rate between 4.25% and 4.5% despite the executive pressures. Analysts at Morgan Stanley said<\/a> on Wednesday that the Federal Reserve will not cut interest rates in 2025.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Wednesday, President Donald Trump pushed<\/a> for Fed governor Lisa Cook to resign on grounds of mortgage fraud allegations. Raphael Bostic, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, noted<\/a> on Wednesday that the \u2018crypto market is too small to put financial stability in play\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Next?<\/h2>\n

The crypto bull market is now in limbo following the bearish sentiment triggered by the FOMC meeting minutes. Crypto traders are now expecting similar hawkish sentiment from Thursday\u2019s U.S. unemployment data and Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s speech on Friday at Jackson Hole.
Nonetheless, the crypto market may record a sharp rebound in the coming weeks fueled by a major short-squeeze.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
