TechFlow news, January 6 — According to Cointelegraph, Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, released a new research report indicating that Bitcoin may rise ahead of Trump's inauguration (January 20), but could pull back ahead of the end-of-month Federal Reserve FOMC meeting. He expects Bitcoin’s price action in January to follow a pattern of "positive start, minor pullback before CPI data, and rebound ahead of Trump's inauguration."
Thielen emphasized that Federal Reserve policy communication remains the "primary risk" for Bitcoin's performance in 2025. Currently, the CME Group FedWatch tool indicates an 88.8% probability that the FOMC will keep interest rates unchanged at 425–450 basis points during its January 29 meeting.
