Why now

The Jackson Hole keynote directly shaped near-term attention around Bitcoin and Fed policy.
Bitcoin moved sharply around the speech, dipping before recovering.
September rate expectations became a key focus after Warsh offered no clear guidance.

Why it matters

Bitcoin’s inability to decisively clear $80,000 keeps the level central to the market narrative.
Inflation-focused Fed communication can affect expectations for borrowing costs and crypto liquidity.
The muted reaction suggests traders are still waiting for clearer policy direction.
