🔚 Conclusion

currently, the crypto market is in a breathing space ahead of the FOMC rate decision. with an average buy recommendation score of 1.2, the market is showing weak buy signals, but a cautious approach is needed rather than over-betting.

while volatility may increase in the short term, the medium to long term outlook is favorable, with a rate-cutting cycle, increased institutional investment, and regulatory clarity. We believe a selective investment strategy is warranted, especially given the strength of certain altcoins such as BNB and Dogecoin.

investors should pay close attention to the dot plot that will be released alongside the FOMC results, as well as the content of Powell's press conference. We also advise investors to invest within their personal risk tolerance.
