Bitcoin (BTC) price managed to regain the $102K mark intraday, whereas leading altcoins’ price movements recovered after a rollercoaster ride.

Crypto Prices Today: FOMC To Keep Interest Unchanged? BTC, ETH, XRP Face Turbulence

As per the recent CME FedWatch tool data, there is a 97.3% probability that this FOMC will come with no change in interest rates. This projection, under the newly inaugurated president Donald Trump, may prove to be unbeneficial for risk assets such as crypto despite the Republican’s promises and support for the sector.

As a response, traders and investors appear to be cautious, with the crypto market recording massive liquidations in recent days whilst also facing a turbulent price action intraday.

However, it’s noteworthy that the global crypto market cap witnessed a slight 0.5% uptick from yesterday. Further, the total market volume soared 83% intraday, reaching $194.97 billion.

The coin has recovered intraday after the recent market dip right before the FOMC. Besides, top crypto analyst Ali Martinez revealed on X that BTC price could reach $211,000 this bull cycle, sparking discussions. This optimistic prediction comes against the backdrop of historical trends.

Ethereum Price At $3,200

ETH price also gained nearly 1% in value and is currently sitting at $3,213. The coin’s intraday low and high were $3,024.09 and $3,234.95, respectively.

The market shows signs of recovery following the recent crash, although some altcoins still face heat. It’s noteworthy that the recent crash was attributable to the rise of open-source Chinese AI startup DeepSeek, which promptly outperformed OpenAI and Meta, threatening U.S. stocks.

However, market expert Ash Crypto posted on X, revealing that the new AI reportedly collects IP, keystroke patterns, and device info, thus storing it in China. This information may present the new AI with a ban ahead, as seen with previous Chinese data-collecting models, thereby paving the way for U.S. stocks and a broader market recovery.
