    Fed Hike Odds Cross 60% as Digital Assets and Rate Sensitives Soften

    Question

    Fed Hike Odds Cross 60% as Digital Assets and Rate Sensitives Soften

    Direct answer

    Market-implied probabilities for a Federal Reserve interest rate hike reached above 60% during the September 8 trading session. The shift in pricing triggered modest risk-off moves across liquidity-sensitive assets. Bitcoin fell 0.9% to $78,475 while Solana declined 0.6%, though Ethereum remained relatively resilient with a 0.1% loss. Traders are monitoring whether sticky inflation inputs or resilient activity indicators continue to pull rate cuts out of the forward curve.
