<p>Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan announced in Zurich on November 21 that interest rates should remain stable due to persistent inflation and balanced labor market conditions.</p>
<p>Logan's stance impacts crypto markets, limiting leveraged trading and speculative inflows, with major tokens capped due to strong U.S. dollar effects.</p>

<p>Dallas Fed President <strong>Lorie K. Logan</strong> recently emphasized the advantages of maintaining interest rates <strong>"unchanged for now"</strong> due to the current state of inflation and labor market conditions. As she expressed in her <a href="https://www.dallasfed.org/news/speeches/logan/2025/lkl251031" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">official address</a> in Zurich, decreased rates would only be logical if significant evidence supports them.</p>
<p><strong>Interest rate stability</strong> is crucial in the current economic climate. Unchanged rates are expected to sustain USD strength, which traditionally curbs upward momentum in risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. <strong>BTC and ETH</strong> are particularly impacted as they commonly react to shifts in monetary policies.</p>
<p>Additionally, Logan explained, "We are facing still real upside risks to inflation and meaningful uncertainties over the economic outlook," which underscores the cautious approach of the Fed.</p>
