PANews reported on October 17th that, according to The Block, JPMorgan analysts believe that last week's sharp crypto market correction, accompanied by large-scale liquidations, may have been driven by native crypto investors, rather than institutional or retail ETF holders. The report shows that spot Bitcoin ETFs, popular with traditional retail investors, showed "almost no signs of large-scale liquidations." From October 10th to 14th, Bitcoin ETFs experienced net outflows of $220 million, representing only 0.14% of total assets under management; Ethereum ETFs saw net outflows of $370 million, representing 1.23%. Meanwhile, CME Bitcoin futures saw almost no liquidation, while CME Ethereum futures saw significant deleveraging, possibly reflecting momentum traders "substantially reducing their risk exposure." In contrast, perpetual futures, favored by native crypto traders, saw significant deleveraging, with open interest in Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual contracts falling by approximately 40%, a drop that outpaced the price declines of both assets. Analysts believe that native crypto investors were the primary driver of last week's market correction, while non-native crypto investors largely remained on the sidelines.PANews reported on October 17th that, according to The Block, JPMorgan analysts believe that last week's sharp crypto market correction, accompanied by large-scale liquidations, may have been driven by native crypto investors, rather than institutional or retail ETF holders.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
