Donald Trump Doubles Down on Opposition to Central Bank Digital Currencies at New Hampshire Rally

During a rally in New Hampshire, Donald Trump reiterated his opposition to central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), stating that he will never allow their creation. He referred to crypto-friendly candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, who recently suspended his campaign after a disappointing showing in Iowa. Trump has previously expressed concerns that a CBDC would give the federal government absolute control over people's money. With the suspension of Ramaswamy and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who also criticized CBDCs, digital assets may now take a back seat in the 2024 U.S. presidential race. However, voters in Florida have shown interest in the topic, according to a report by CoinDesk.

  • Goldman Sachs: Still expects the Fed to cut interest rates in December, January and March

    Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's speech last week hinted at a possible pause in interest rate cuts at the upcoming meeting. This news has left investors dissatisfied. However, some economists do not believe that Powell's remarks will have a negative impact on the market. Citigroup's chief US economist, Andrew Hollenhorst, said, "US bond yields rose due to Powell's remarks, but we believe this is more a reflection of Powell keeping all options open rather than intentionally sending a hawkish signal." Goldman Sachs' chief economist, Hazus, still expects "the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates continuously in December, January, and March, and then once per quarter in June and September. However, he believes that the FOMC may slow down the pace of interest rate cuts faster, which could happen as early as the December or January meeting." However, unless the November employment or inflation report unexpectedly strengthens, the likelihood of the FOMC skipping interest rate cuts in December is low.

  • Analysis predicts bitcoin price could reach $200,000 despite recent surge

    According to BCA Research, despite the recent surge in bitcoin's price, it could potentially rise to $200,000 based on a gauge using 260-day fractal patterns. This gauge indicates that the current levels are nowhere near the levels seen during previous bull market peaks. While bitcoin is currently below the six-figure mark, one firm is predicting that its price could more than double from the current market rate of $90,000. The rise in stablecoin liquidity and bitcoin transactions is contributing to the formation of "Uptober." The ETH/BTC ratio has also slid to its lowest since April 2021.
