Change in Fear and Greed Value: +4

Last Week’s Level: 72

This Week’s Level: 76

This week, the Fear and Greed Index rose from 72 to 76, indicating an increase in risk appetite in the markets. Marathon Digital’s purchase of 11,774 Bitcoin may have created a positive sentiment in the markets as institutional demand strengthened. In addition, Goldman Sachs CEO’s statement that he would consider participating in crypto markets if regulators allow it seems to have boosted investor confidence. On the other hand, Microsoft shareholders voting against Bitcoin investment seems to have had a positive impact on the market. The increase in the index points to a positive perception supported by corporate statements in general.

Toplam Piyasa Değeri

Kaynak: Tradingview

Market Capitalization Last Week: $ 3.62 T

This Week’s Market Capitalization: $ 3.51 T

If the total market capitalization in the cryptocurrency market fails to reach 3.62 trillion dollars before the close this week after a 5-week upward streak, it will end its weekly upward streak. After falling to $3.22 trillion, the market is trying to recover, but has not yet been able to rise above the level it started this week.

Total2
When Total2 is analyzed, it is observed that the 5-week bullish streak continues and reflects a similar situation with Total. For the weekly uptrend to continue, Total2 needs to close the week above $ 1.61 trillion. Total2, which behaves more volatile than the decline on Total, shows that Bitcoin dominance continues.

Total3
To continue its 5-week bullish streak, Total3 needs to rise at a higher rate than Total and Total2. This shows that Ethereum has a more solid stance compared to the average of other altcoins. Compared to Total, Bitcoin’s performance is stronger than Ethereum’s.

Bitcoin Hakimiyeti

Kaynak: Tradingview

Bitcoin dominance, which was in a three-week retracement period until the previous week, showed positive accelerations as of the new week. So much so that Bitcoin dominance, which fell to 54.50%, which we follow as an important support level, accelerated positively with support from these levels. In this respect, Bitcoin dominance is currently moving at 56.30% this week, up from 55.36% as of last week’s close.

The Shift in Bitcoin Dominance:

• Last Week’s Level: 55.36%
• This Week’s Level: 56.30%

Ethereum Hakimiyeti

Source: Tradingview

Ethereum Hakimiyeti

ETH dominance, which closed last week at 13.34%, retreated to 13.01% in the new week, then increased towards Cuma and is currently at 13.40%.

If the US central bank FED cuts interest rates, which will be announced next week, an increase in ETH dominance can be observed with possible decreases in BTC dominance. As a result of this situation, ETH dominance can be expected to rise to 14% – 14.5%.

HAFTANIN ÖNEMLİ OLAYLARI

As global markets prepare to enter the new year, position and expectation adjustments continue. The sharp decline of Bitcoin on Aralık 5 and the rapid recovery that followed was interpreted by some as a “quantum computer” effect. Last week, we saw similar textures and pricing behaviors in BTC, although not as deep, and the market’s largest digital asset seems to have continued to reflect the effects of position adjustments, hovering around the 100,000 level.

Next week will be the last week of the year when the big, traditional market traders are fully in the game. It will also be the last meeting of the FOMC for this year and we can safely say that this will be the most important development of the week.

FED yaptı mı yapmadı mı?

It would not be wrong to say that the most important Aralık development that may move the stones in asset prices will be the results of the FOMC meeting. It seems that the tone of financial tightness will continue to play a leading role in the decision-making process of global investors about whether the necessary environment for taking more risk has been created. In this context, we can say that the FED’s monetary policy decision is the main variable.

18 Aralık'ta yapılacak FOMC toplantısının ardından yatırımcılar aşağıdaki sorulara yanıt bulmaya çalışacak.

• Faiz oranı düşürüldü mü?
• Açıklamada yeni bir faiz indirimine yönelik bir mesaj var mı?
• "Nokta Çizimi" tablosunda ne gibi değişiklikler var?
• Powell faiz indirim patikası ve ABD ekonomisi hakkında ne söyleyecek?

When the statement comes, of course, the first thing we will look at is whether there is a rate cut or not. After the minutes of the FOMC meeting held on Kasım 6-7 and the latest inflation data, the markets started to give a 25 basis point rate cut a higher probability. The message between the lines of the minutes was cautious but gradual rate cuts. Inflation, on the other hand, did not surprise and did not pose an obstacle for Powell and his team to decide on another rate cut. Therefore, the FED is expected to cut interest rates by 25 basis points on Aralık 18 and we agree with this.

FED'in faiz oranlarını 25 baz puan düşürmesi halinde bunun piyasalar üzerinde derin bir etki yaratmasını beklemiyoruz çünkü bu zaten fiyatlanmış durumda. Ancak FOMC sürpriz bir kararla faiz oranını sabit bırakırsa bunun dijital varlıkları olumsuz etkileyebileceğini söyleyebiliriz. Faiz oranının sabit tutulması ya da 25 baz puan düşürülmesi dışındaki olasılıkları çok düşük olarak değerlendiriyoruz.

Faiz kararının hemen ardından basın eş zamanlı olarak FOMC'nin ekonomik projeksiyonlarını ve üyelerin gelecekteki faiz oranlarına ilişkin beklentilerini gösteren "dot plot" grafiğini inceleyecektir. Bu bilgi seli içinde nokta grafiği önceliğimiz olacaktır.

The policy rate, which is currently in the range of 4.50%-4.75%, is expected by FOMC officials to fall to 4.25%-4.50% by the end of the year, according to the latest documents published in Eylül. So, there is room for one more 25 basis point cut. On Aralık 18th, however, we will look at this chart and see what level the interest rate will be at by the end of 2025. In the last dot plot, we see that FOMC officials are concentrated in the 3.0-3.50 range. This implies that, assuming another 25 basis points rate cut in Aralık, there could be another 100-150 basis points of rate cuts in 2025. We will closely monitor how this view will change in the new chart to be published. A chart that may indicate further rate cuts may support market expectations of a faster easing in financial tightness, which in turn may increase risk-taking incentives. In such a case, we would expect digital assets to continue to rise. However, a “dot plot” chart that would chart an interest rate cut course at a slower pace could lead to a contrary trend and cause a pullback in cryptocurrencies, even if short-term.

After the release of the statement and the documents, attention will now turn to FED Chairman Powell. He will first read the statement and then answer questions from the participants. We can say that the question-and-answer session will be the part where volatility will increase once again. Inflation, the labor market, other non-economic risks and the Trump factor… The President will try to answer every question by choosing words that are reasonable and will not shake the markets, but this may not always be possible.

We are all curious about the impact of Trump and his team’s new fiscal policies and how the Fed is preparing in response. But in his recent speeches, Powell did not go into these issues at all and dodged every question. We think he will do so again, but we also think that journalists will not refrain from pressing the Chairman. It is difficult to analyze the answers to these questions, but we can say that if Powell feels cornered too much, he may express a little more harshly that they will mind their own business, not Trump’s policies.

The main topic will be the FOMC’s rate cut path in 2025. The dose of financial tightness is very important for the markets and every investor wants to know how fast rates will decline. Powell could lay out a course in this regard. A message that rates could be cut at a fast pace would be a surprise. A similar, but opposite, effect could be seen if he suggests that interest rate cuts should be suspended for a while. We expect Powell to emphasize the health of the US economy and the strength of the labor market, saying that inflation is under control, that they will monitor the data and act accordingly, and that 25 basis points is a reasonable dose of rate cuts “when necessary”. Statements that imply otherwise may cause fluctuations in asset prices. A possible message that interest rates will come down at a slower pace may put pressure on digital assets, while the opposite situation may pave the way for new rises.
