1. Market conditions
(1) Macro environment:
l The Federal Reserve FOMC meeting is approaching, and the market is paying attention to the future policy direction and the pace of interest rate cuts
The economic focus this week is on the Federal Reserve's FOMC meeting on Wednesday and the release of its interest rate decision and quarterly economic forecast on Thursday. The market generally expects a 25 basis point rate cut in December, but the real focus is on the Fed's future policy direction, and it is expected that the rate cut will be more cautious next year. In addition, as many as 25 central banks, including Japan, the United Kingdom and Sweden, will hold interest rate meetings in the same week, and these key decisions may trigger market fluctuations. Luis Buenaventura, head of cryptocurrency at GCash, pointed out that since the Fed's interest rate cut expectations have been digested by the market in advance, the direct impact of this policy adjustment on cryptocurrency prices is limited.

Bitcoin price breaks through $106,500 to hit a record high, further consolidating its status as “digital gold”
On December 16, the price of Bitcoin broke through $106,500, setting a new all-time high. At the same time, the ratio of Bitcoin to gold also hit a record high, further consolidating its status as "digital gold". In addition, MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor said that even if the spot price of Bitcoin exceeds $100,000, the company still plans to continue to increase its holdings. This may trigger passive funds to flow into MicroStrategy's shares, making it easier for the company to raise funds to buy Bitcoin. Although the central bank meeting this week has limited impact on the crypto market, Bitcoin is still completely driven by market sentiment; if the Federal Reserve adopts an extremely dovish attitude, it is still possible to provide further momentum for Bitcoin to rise.
