The probability of a September interest-rate hike by the Federal Reserve has reached 66%, putting pressure on Bitcoin's price recovery. According to CME FedWatch data, this significant increase in rate hike odds is attributed to persistent inflation and hawkish comments from Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh.

Rising US interest rates can strengthen bond yields and the dollar, reducing demand for risk assets like Bitcoin. Currently trading near $78,300, Bitcoin faces a potential drop towards $74,000, which would test its breakout support.

AlphaPepe, a cryptocurrency in presale, is offering a 178% upside from its current price of $0.02873 to its planned listing price of $0.08. This provides an attractive opportunity for investors seeking high returns compared to Bitcoin's limited potential growth.
