Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's announcement of rate cuts in the coming months has led to a rise in the price of Bitcoin, which briefly surpassed $62,000. Powell stated that the central bank is pleased with cooling inflation but is more attentive to growing weakness in the labor market. Ethereum and Solana also saw price increases of 2.7% and 2.1%, respectively. Traders are confident that the Fed will ease up in its inflation fight, with a 67% chance of a 0.25% rate cut in September according to CME Fedwatch. This is a developing story and will be updated with additional details.
