The Move

Bitcoin consolidated near $76,200 after dipping to $75,000 on the Fed's 8-4 split rate decision. The drop came as Powell's final meeting and Kevin Warsh's incoming appointment created policy uncertainty.

The Signal

Coinbase Premium turned negative while realized losses spiked to $6 billion, the opposite of institutional accumulation. ETF outflows extended for two days as smart money stepped back ahead of Fed transition risk.

The Watch

PCE inflation data tomorrow at 8:30 AM ET, then jobs report Friday. Both will set the tone for Warsh's monetary policy direction when he takes the chair.

What Happened

The Day in 30 Seconds

Fed's 8-4 split vote created immediate policy uncertainty as Powell exits and Warsh prepares to take the chair, historically a volatile period for risk assets. Bitcoin underperformed traditional assets with S&P flat and gold up 0.5%, suggesting risk-off sentiment dominated. The 0.54 correlation to S&P 500 over 90 days kept Bitcoin tied to broader risk sentiment rather than trading on its monetary properties.

Bitcoin tracked risk-off sentiment today, declining 0.33% while gold gained 0.50%, reinforcing the 0.54 correlation to equities over monetary asset behavior.
