When Is The Next FOMC Meeting And What Are The Expectations For Crypto?
The article previews the next FOMC meeting on April 29, 2026, and evaluates likely effects on crypto markets. CME FedWatch shows a 99.5% probability the Fed will hold rates at the current 3.50–3.75% range (0% chance of a cut, 0.5% chance of a hike). Because markets broadly expect no policy change, the piece argues the meeting is unlikely to move crypto prices materially; however, a dovish cut would be bullish for crypto while a hawkish hike could pressure risk assets. The meeting runs two days and will be followed by a press conference. The article also notes the crypto market cap cited at $2.57 billion and references potential altcoin dynamics (Solana/Ethereum) in related coverage.
