Federal Reserve Keeps Rates Steady at 3.5-3.75%
The US Federal Reserve kept benchmark interest rates steady at 3.5% to 3.75%, aligning with market forecasts as reported by Detik Finance.
This decision marks the fifth consecutive rate hold following a 25-basis-point reduction in December 2025, the final policy action under former Chair Jerome Powell.
The pause prompted modest declines in digital asset prices, with Bitcoin dropping 1% to $63,890 and Ethereum sliding around 1% to just above $1,900.
The decision came without an updated Summary of Economic Projections, leaving investors without fresh dot-plot interest rate forecasts until September.
