Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP face pressure as Fed rate hike odds jump to 86.5%.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP are under pressure due to rising expectations of a Federal Reserve interest rate hike at the September 15-16 meeting, with an 86.5% chance of a 25 basis point increase. This would be the Fed's first rate hike in three years, potentially tightening financial conditions for risk assets like cryptocurrencies. Despite this, Bitcoin's outlook remains positive with potential for further gains after consolidation, Ethereum is testing key resistance levels, and XRP is more vulnerable but may recover if key support holds. Traders are closely watching the Fed decision as higher rates could dampen crypto momentum.
