According to @BullTheoryio, BTC erased the entire pre-FOMC pump within 12 hours as whales took profits after a widely expected rate cut and a $40B T-bill purchase plan that many traders had already front-run, triggering the first leg of the sell-off, source: @BullTheoryio. The post adds that Chair Powell highlighted a weak labor market and still-elevated inflation, while the Fed dot plot pointed to only one cut in 2026, increasing uncertainty and pressuring risk assets after the US cash close, source: @BullTheoryio. @BullTheoryio reports that Oracle’s Q2 missed adjusted revenue and guided higher capex, sending ORCL down 11–12% after hours, dragging US stock futures lower and spilling risk-off sentiment into crypto amid fears the AI trade is peaking, source: @BullTheoryio. The author summarizes five overlapping drivers: the cut was fully priced in, liquidity trades were front-run, Powell offered no strong easing signal, ORCL earnings hit AI/tech sentiment, and profit-taking accelerated as uncertainty rose, source: @BullTheoryio. Despite the dump, the post argues the broader backdrop remains supportive with three consecutive cuts, $40B in T-bill buys over the next 30 days, no hike as the base case, and softer labor data giving room to ease if needed, source: @BullTheoryio. The move is framed as expectations outrunning reality rather than a shift to bearish fundamentals, which keeps the liquidity narrative relevant for crypto even as positioning resets, source: @BullTheoryio.
