Crypto shares gained in midday trading. MicroStrategy rose over 9%; Bit Digital, Coinbase rose over 6%; Canaan rose over 5%; CleanSpark, Marathon Digital rose over 3%.

Last night, the US Federal Reserve (FED) announced that it had cut interest rates by 50 basis points after four years.

Following this decision, the price of Bitcoin rose above $62,000.

Swan Bitcoin’s Steven Lubka said that falling interest rates stimulate the economy and lead investors to buy riskier assets such as stocks and cryptocurrencies, saying:

“Bitcoin is highly correlated with its liquidity environment, and this will support Bitcoin prices to move higher towards the end of the year and beyond.”

While analysts expect Bitcoin to rise from October on the back of Fed rate cuts, historical data showing bullish fourth quarters, and supportive macroeconomic events, Bernstein analysts made a dual forecast based on the US election results.

Accordingly, Bernstein analysts predict that if Trump wins, Bitcoin will rise to $90,000 this year, while if he loses, BTC will fall to $30,000.
