BTC) price has gained ground in the wake of the Federal Open Market Committee (
FOMC) announcement, and with it, Ethereum and Ripple price are showing signs of improvement. Thanks to this newly found positive momentum, bulls appear to be putting a new threshold on BTC, with all credit going to the series of macro events that have just been completed.

crypto market, potentially beating down Bitcoin price. However, a strong job report, considering the current market conditions, would be quite surprising.
Bitcoin price has resumed its upward trend post the US Federal Reserve’s 25 basis point (bps) interest rate hike. Experts like BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes have noted the impact of failure of US banks on Bitcoin’s uptrend.
