Bitwise CIO predicts reduced impact of U.S. rates on BTC over five years

Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated that U.S. benchmark rate decisions are expected to have less influence on Bitcoin over the next five years compared to the past. He noted that U.S. interest rates have fluctuated significantly since Bitcoin's launch, but adjustments have become more gradual. CME forecasts rate changes to be limited to around 50 basis points over the next year. Under new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh, only fine-tuned rate adjustments are anticipated. As rate volatility decreases, its effect on Bitcoin is likely to diminish, although the benchmark rate will still be a significant factor, with other variables gaining more importance.
