Bitcoin and major altcoins are bracing for remarks from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, scheduled for Jan. 28 at 10:00 a.m. ET, as traders treat the event as a near-term macro catalyst, according to MarketWatch’s economy and politics calendar.
The calendar-driven watchlist also includes U.S. weekly jobless claims on Jan. 29 and the Producer Price Index on Jan. 30, with broader risk sentiment also tied to fiscal-policy headlines, including the prospect of a U.S. government shutdown highlighted in the same report.
Positioning now comes down to tone: a hawkish read can tighten financial-conditions expectations and pressure risk assets, while softer guidance can re-open the rate-cut narrative. Traders are watching Bitcoin’s technical areas around $92,000 and $85,000 to $86,000 as the week’s data prints land.
