In 2008, the Bitcoin whitepaper established a new foundation for value. Eighteen years on, that blueprint still keeps us on track: through every cycle, the shared standard is infrastructure everyone can rely on. Happy Bitcoin Whitepaper Day to those building for the long run. https://t.co/lcBQmeWAbx

Bitcoin has tracked the Nasdaq-100 closely, so Thursday’s tech earnings reached crypto too. With the Fed giving no guidance after Wednesday’s hold, markets now look to December. For full details, check out our blog post.

Tech earnings lifted risk assets today, though central bank policy remains the primary driver. With an October Fed pause priced in, focus turns to Chair Warsh’s guidance ahead of tomorrow’s Core PCE data. Read the full analysis on the Nexo blog. 🔗

Tonight’s Fed decision: markets price ~90% chance of a rate hold. What matters more for $BTC right now?

Three central banks. One crucial December question. As the Fed, ECB, and BoJ deliver rate decisions in a 72-hour window, Bitcoin holding above $80,000 marks a classic mid-recovery transition. Short-term policy noise is rising, but structural cycles move on schedule. https://t.co/aBLx3QXTR9

With the Fed decision tomorrow, here is the next useful insight from our Q4 Market Outlook. Rate cycles set the backdrop for Bitcoin, not the timing of its moves. Bitcoin peaked in October 2025 while the Fed was still cutting, and bottomed in June 2026 with rates on hold, weeks after US inflation peaked at 4.2%. The September hike is the test. Bitcoin is up about 8% since then, a break from the past: after 17 of the 20 Fed hikes since 2015, it was lower 30 days later. Whether that holds depends on the data that follow.

Central banks anchor a pivotal week for global markets, with rate decisions and forward guidance poised to set the macro direction heading into year-end. With Bitcoin volatility holding near multi-year lows, a packed calendar of GDP, inflation data, and tech earnings from Alphabet and Microsoft could provide the catalyst markets have been waiting for. 🇺🇸 CB Consumer Confidence (Oct) – Tue, Oct 27, 14:00 UTC 🇨🇦 BoC Interest Rate Decision – Wed, Oct 28, 13:45 UTC 🇺🇸 Fed Interest Rate Decision – Wed, Oct 28, 18:00 UTC 🇺🇸 FOMC Press Conference – Wed, Oct 28, 18:30 UTC 🇺🇸 GDP QoQ (Q3) – Thu, Oct 29, 12:30 UTC 🇺🇸 Core PCE Price Index (MoM & YoY) (Sep) – Thu, Oct 29, 12:30 UTC 🇺🇸 Initial & Continuing Jobless Claims – Thu, Oct 29, 12:30 UTC 🇪🇺 ECB Interest Rate Decision (Oct) – Thu, Oct 29, 13:15 UTC 🇪🇺 ECB Press Conference – Thu, Oct 29, 13:45 UTC 🇯🇵 BoJ Interest Rate Decision – Fri, Oct 30, 03:00 UTC 🇪🇺 Eurozone GDP QoQ (Q3) – Fri, Oct 30, 10:00 UTC 🇺🇸 Chicago PMI (Oct) – Fri, Oct 30, 13:45 UTC 🇨🇳 NBS Manufacturing PMI (Oct) – Sat, Oct 31, 01:30 UTC
