Early this morning, the Federal Reserve announced it would slow the pace of reducing its $6.8 trillion balance sheet, lowering the monthly Treasury reduction cap from $25 billion to $5 billion. This move has eased market liquidity, leading to a rebound in cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin leading the charge.

Jamie Coutts, Chief Crypto Analyst at Real Vision, stated, "These shifts could lay the groundwork for a significant Bitcoin rally within the next 90 days."  

David Duong, Head of Research at Coinbase, added, "With liquidity transitioning from tight to loose after nearly six months, crypto asset prices may bottom out faster than most market participants expect."
