π Crypto 101: why $BTC cares about a Fed meeting from three weeks ago
Today at 11 AM PT the Fed releases its September minutes. That's the behind the scenes notes from the meeting where it raised rates to 3.75% to 4.00%, its first hike since 2023.
The minutes don't change rates. They show how many officials still want one more hike.
Why it matters π
That tone moves bond yields, and lately $BTC has moved opposite yields. The 10 year is near 5.35% and BTC is about $83.5K going in.
Sounds patient = relief, $87K wall back in focus
Sounds like one more hike = yields climb, $83.4K then $81.3K get tested
Read the notes, not the panic. πβ¨

Part 2 of my story. He was abandoned at 2 months old, scared and alone, just like I was. I told him everything would be okayβ¦ and somehow, he told me the same. Teddy taught me what true love is. π€ Who's the one that saved you?

Stablecoin holders on solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 Solana just crossed 14 million.
That is addresses holding a stablecoin, not people. One person can have more than one wallet.
The count was under 4 million in late 2024. It is now 14,018,082, for the week ending October 4.
More wallets are parking dollar stablecoins on Solana. That is the payment rail getting wider, not a price call.

Wall Street didn't panic this week, darling. They bought. π
Spot Bitcoin ETFs just pulled in $241M, their 3rd straight week of inflows. BlackRock's IBIT alone took in $450M, while Ether ETFs saw $138M walk out the door.
Crypto 101: an ETF lets big money buy Bitcoin without ever touching a wallet. When those funds see inflows, real BTC is being bought and held.
Why it matters: after a rough first half of 2026, steady inflows mean institutions are quietly coming back while the timeline argues about the chart.
Are you stacking or watching? πβ¨
