The eagerly awaited Federal Reserve minutes were released, and this event topped today’s key agenda items. We talk about the important developments of the week every Sunday, and in the last one, we discussed how critical today was. The expected increase in volatility was not in vain, and <a href="https://coin-turk.com/son-24-saatte-piyasada-neler-yasandi" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin</a> fell from the $52,500 level to $50,625 in the last 24 hours.

As expected, the Federal Reserve Minutes caused fluctuations in the cryptocurrency markets. Especially altcoins experienced a drop of around 7%, while some saw double-digit losses. <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/bitcoin-price-drops-amidst-continued-market-volatility/" data-wpel-link="internal">BTC</a> itself suffered a loss of about $2,000. In the last Federal Reserve meeting, Powell stated they would not rush interest rate cuts and that it is highly unlikely there will be a reduction in the March meeting.
