U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent clarified today that the widely discussed $2,000 dividend plan is in fact a tax reduction measure, not a direct liquidity injection into households. This statement shattered market expectations that fiscal stimulus would drive capital into the crypto space. Simultaneously, Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan delivered hawkish remarks, explicitly opposing a December rate cut, further undermining hopes for looser monetary policy. The combination of these two headwinds triggered a sharp decline in Bitcoin and Ethereum prices, with market sentiment shifting to panic. Analysts noted that bulls currently lack new catalysts, with AI narratives serving as the last remaining pillar of support. However, upcoming Nvidia earnings could introduce additional volatility.
