Here’s why Bitcoin is stuck below $80,000 and what Powell’s FOMC meeting did for BTC price

Bitcoin entered yesterday's Fed decision already capped below a dense on-chain supply zone, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference gave buyers little reason to push through it. The Federal Reserve kept the target range at 3.5%-3.75% and explicitly linked elevated inflation to higher global energy prices, citing the tensions in the Middle East as […] The post Here’s why Bitcoin is stuck below $80,000 and what Powell’s FOMC meeting did for BTC price appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Bitcoin extends decline after Fed holds rates, drops below 20-day moving average

Bitcoin extended its two-day decline on Wednesday after the Fed held rates at 3½-3¾%, with BTC dropping to $74,937 below the 20-day SMA of $75,664. Analysts cited Middle East developments and uncertainty around the Fed's dual mandate. Hyblock CEO described the move as classic post-FOMC position squaring, while Glassnode noted Bitcoin trapped below market mean with weak demand preventing sustainable rallies.

Bitcoin Struggles to Sustain Rebound as Analysts Warn of Potential Pullback

Bitcoin rallied above $77,900 on Wednesday but struggled to sustain gains, with analysts divided on near-term prospects. On-chain analyst Willy Woo gives BTC only 30% odds of rising above the $79,000 cost basis of recent investors. Some analysts anticipate a breakout to new ATH and $250,000 in 2026, while others see a drop below $50,000 to as low as $30,000. Major altcoins including ETH, XRP, SOL, and DOGE risk breaking below their immediate support levels, signaling potential deeper short-term pullback.

Bitcoin corrects ahead of FOMC as historical data shows 7 of 10 rate cut pullbacks

Bitcoin fell from $79,500 as traders repositioned ahead of the FOMC meeting, continuing a pattern where BTC corrected 7 of 10 times after interest rate cuts since 2025. The Jan 29-Feb 5 drawdown saw $2.5 billion in BTC liquidations and $4.5 billion total crypto liquidations, with futures open interest dropping from $61 billion to $49 billion. Despite short-term caution, Strategy accumulated 145,837 BTC in 2026 and spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $3.5 billion in net inflows over two months, providing structural support at key price levels.

Federal Reserve Holds Rates Steady, Citing Middle East Uncertainty and Inflation Risks

The Federal Reserve maintained interest rates at 3.5-3.75% citing upside inflation risks from rising global energy prices and Middle East uncertainty. Four of 12 FOMC members dissented—the highest since 1992—with Stephen Miran advocating for a cut while others objected to the policy statement's rate cut indication. Oil prices have climbed above $110/barrel from $70 before the US-Iran conflict began February 28.

Fed Holds Rates Steady at 3.5%-3.75% as Divided FOMC Splits 8-4 on Easing Bias

The Federal Reserve maintained its benchmark interest rate at 3.5%-3.75% in an unusually divided 8-4 vote, with four members dissenting over the committee's easing bias language. The split marks the most divided FOMC decision since October 1992. Governors and regional presidents disagreed on whether to signal potential rate cuts, as inflation remains elevated due to energy prices. Markets expect no changes through 2027. Chair Jerome Powell's term ends in May, with Kevin Warsh nominated to replace him.

Gold faces downside pressure as oil surges on stalled US-Iran talks; FOMC looms

Gold prices declined 0.75% to $4678 as oil surged due to stalled US-Iran talks, with daily Strait of Hormuz transits near zero. The yellow metal posted its first weekly loss in five weeks at 2.5%. Analysts warn of continued downside unless oil prices ease, with support at $4600. The FOMC is expected to signal a hawkish stance on April 29 amid rising inflation concerns from the Iran war.
