Bitcoin Breaks Above $115K as Traders Position Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

Bitcoin, Ether Lead Crypto Rally Ahead of Fed Rate Decision

October 27, 2025

Crypto markets climbed on Monday as traders positioned ahead of the Federal Reserve’s upcoming policy meeting, where a rate cut is widely expected.

Bitcoin (BTC) advanced to around $115,200, extending gains from the weekend, while Ether (ETH) traded near $4,160. The move marked a modest but broad recovery across digital assets after last week’s choppy trading.

Analysts attributed the rebound to growing confidence that the Fed will ease policy on Wednesday, potentially cutting interest rates for the second time this year. A dovish tone from policymakers could further support risk assets, including crypto.

Bitcoin’s market dominance continued to strengthen, reflecting lingering weakness across most altcoins. Still, a few exceptions emerged — ENA climbed to $0.4986, while ZEC traded higher at $339.38, outperforming the broader market.
