The post FED News Today: Liquidity Shift Could Spark Next Big Crypto Bull Run appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
After weeks of sideways trading, veteran trader VirtualBacon believes the crypto market is standing on the edge of something massive, a full-blown liquidity-driven rally. He believes the Federal Reserve’s quiet shift toward ending quantitative tightening (QT) marks the beginning of the next major “crypto melt-up”, sending Bitcoin and altcoins soaring once again.
Fed’s Liquidity Shift Begins
According to VirtualBacon, the biggest event for crypto this year isn’t the Bitcoin halving or ETF approvals, it’s the Federal Reserve’s liquidity pivot.
For over 18 months, the Fed has been in Quantitative Tightening (QT) mode, reducing its $7 trillion balance sheet to fight inflation. This tightening drained cash from markets, pressuring Bitcoin and altcoins.
Fed Liquidity is Here: The Crypto Melt-Up Starts Now
The Fed is on the verge of ending QT, just like 2019 and that means one thing: Liquidity is coming back.
If you know what this means for #Bitcoin and altcoins, you should be excited.
Here’s why I think this is the…

Now, signs indicate this phase may end soon, potentially refilling liquidity and sparking the next crypto rally. Major banks like Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, and Evercore expect QT to conclude by November or December, setting the stage for renewed market momentum.
History Shows Liquidity Drives Crypto Cycles
According to VirtualBacon, every major crypto bull run has aligned with periods when the Fed loosened liquidity.
- In 2019, when the Fed prints money, investors rush back into risk assets like Bitcoin, which tripled within months. And when QT stopped, altcoins soared.
- In 2022, QT restarted, and altcoins began to tumble.
- Now in 2025, as QT comes to an end again, the setup looks strikingly similar to 2019, the year Bitcoin tripled in price.
When central banks inject money, investors typically turn “risk-on,” favoring volatile assets like crypto. The pattern is simple: when the Fed prints, altcoins pump.
Why Markets Expect the Pivot Soon
Economic indicators are flashing familiar warning signs. Bank reserves are falling, stress in the repo market is rising, and the U.S. Treasury recently added $800 billion to its cash account, temporarily removing liquidity from the system.
This mirrors 2019, when the Fed quietly injected cash in a move called “stealth QE.”
Supporting this outlook, the CME FedWatch tool shows a 99.9% chance of a rate cut this month and an 87.9% chance of another in November or December, pointing to a clear move toward easing.
How This Will Impact Bitcoin and Altcoins
VirtualBacon points out that Bitcoin hasn’t topped yet, and none of the 30 historical peak indicators have triggered. He believes this is a mid-cycle phase, not a market top. With global M2 money supply already rising, and gold leading the way, Bitcoin could soon follow with a sharp move higher.
If liquidity indeed returns, VirtualBacon believes Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and BNB could be the first to surge, paving the way for another broad-based crypto rally.
