Bitcoin’s ‘biggest bull catalyst’ may be the next Fed chair pick: Novogratz
Mike Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Digital, indicated that Bitcoin could experience a significant price rally if the next chair of the US Federal Reserve adopts a dovish stance. In an interview, he stated that such a scenario could lead Bitcoin to potentially reach $200,000. While he acknowledges that aggressive rate cuts by the Fed would be bullish for cryptocurrencies, he also expressed concerns about the economic repercussions for the United States. A dovish Federal Reserve typically weakens the US dollar but is seen as favorable for Bitcoin and other risk assets. Novogratz highlighted that if former President Trump were to appoint a dovish nominee, it could lead to momentous price hikes in Bitcoin and gold. This potential shift in leadership at the Fed will likely not be reflected in market prices until it is officially confirmed. As of the article’s publication, Bitcoin was trading at $109,450, and the Federal Reserve had recently implemented its first rate cut in some time. The comments align with sentiments from other economists regarding the potential post-Powell FOMC dynamics.
