The latest Federal Reserve news has arrived: plans to purchase approximately $220 billion in short-term government bonds over the next 12 months, with a clear goal — to maintain the financial system's liquidity at a "moderately ample" level.

At first glance, this operation may seem like quantitative easing, but the official statement is: it does not equal QE. However, don't be fooled by the wording; the underlying message is quite straightforward — the Federal Reserve is sending a clear signal to the market, which is to keep ample liquidity and stabilize market operations as top priorities.

For assets like ETH, ZEN, and ZBT, a loose liquidity environment generally means more funds seeking investment outlets. In the short term, this policy direction could support risk assets. Of course, the actual impact will also depend on market sentiment and other factors.

ETH0,14%

ZBT3,9%

Basically, it's just printing money, but they don't admit it's QE. They really know how to play.

It's not QE, but if you insist it's not QE, basically it's just a disguised liquidity injection. Funds have to find a place to go.

Basically, it's just flooding the market, whether you call it QE or not haha Anyway, signals of another round of retail investors being cut, those bullish on ETH should get in now With liquidity easing this time, retail wallets are about to jump again The Federal Reserve's tricks have been effective for so many years, let's continue to wait for risk assets to surge A fake move, saying it's not QE doesn't mean it isn't QE... pure logic genius

It's not QE, but they insist it's not QE, hilarious. Who would believe the Fed's rhetoric? --- Investing 220 billion, basically fearing market hang-ups. With ample liquidity, funds naturally flow into risk assets. Looking optimistic about recent Bitcoin and ETH. --- Here we go again. Every time they say they maintain liquidity, it results in a new wave of capital frenzy. How many times has this script been played out? --- Loose liquidity = printing money to find an exit. ZBT, ZEN, these should have been on the radar long ago. --- What they call "moderately ample" is actually endless money printing. I wonder how this will end. --- Wait, are they paving the way for the upcoming big market move? Feels like something is brewing.

Here comes the "not QE but QE," why do you love playing word games so much --- Liquidity has loosened, risk assets can breathe, maybe this time there's really a chance --- Basically, it's just easing, don't be fooled by official jargon --- Pouring in 220 billion, how much ETH can benefit is the question --- "Moderately ample," just hearing it makes you know the liquidity will be plentiful --- Now funds have nowhere to go but into the crypto circle --- Not exactly QE but the effect is similar, who can be fooled --- Short-term support exists, but the real trend depends on what happens next --- They're easing again, the crypto market should become more active --- When the Federal Reserve moves, the entire market has to follow suit
