Sam Bankman-Fried, the one-time cryptocurrency golden boy accused by US prosecutors of stealing billions of dollars of his customers' money, was found guilty on Thursday on all counts, and now faces up to 110 years behind bars.

The cryptocurrency markets were trading higher in Thursday's trading after the US Federal Reserve kept rates unchanged and Chair Jerome Powell hedged on the possible end of the rate hiking cycle. The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady on Wednesday as policymakers struggled to determine whether financial conditions may be tight enough already to control inflation, or whether an economy that continues to outperform expectations may need still more restraint. After the end of a two-day policy meeting, Powell said the better course of action for now, given the uncertainties, was to maintain the Fed's benchmark overnight interest rate in the current 5.25%-5.50% range, and see how job and price data evolve between now and the next policy meeting in December. Meanwhile, after the Fed's decision, the global cryptocurrency market cap surged by 2.45% to over $1.3 trillion in the last 24 hours.

The consistent gains registered by BTC have overshadowed the price action of ETH and other major altcoins. This has led to BTC dominance hitting a new 30-month high of over 54%; the highest since April 2021. However, as investors become comfortable with the risk curve during this market phase, altcoins may see an uptick in investor interest, leading to a correction in BTC dominance, said Parth Chaturvedi, Investments Lead at CoinSwitch Ventures.

The ECB has signalled that their recent hike of 0.25% in three key interest rates could potentially mark the conclusion of the rate hikes in the current cycle. In order to sustain its upward momentum, Bitcoin will need to breach the resistance at $27,000, Edul added.

The global cryptocurrency market cap was trading higher, around $1.04 trillion, rising 1.38% in the last 24 hours. «Bitcoin and Ethereum are holding steady, with Bitcoin maintaining its position above $26,000 and Ethereum above $1,600. Bitcoin's rapid recovery above the critical $26,000 mark following the CPI report, along with Ethereum's stability, has boosted confidence among traders and analysts who regard these levels as pivotal, said CoinDCX Research Team.

BNB, USD Coin, XRP Dogecoin, Cardano and Solana fell up to 2%. ETH was trading at $1,580.67 while Dogecoin was at $0.06124. «In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin briefly lost its crucial support at $25,000 for the first time in almost three months. For BTC to not enter panic mode, $24,500 support remains sacrosanct. This is the level above which BTC has been trading for almost 6 months now. As for ETH, which fell 2.8%, the support of $1,600 has been breached and it is currently trading around $1,550,» Shubham Hudda, Senior Manager, CoinSwitch Markets Desk said. In Hudda's opinion, a major catalyst for SOL’s ($17.95) sell-off is still Wednesday's expectation of FTX unlock, pointing out that this cryptocurrency was already down by around 50% from its recent high in July. «Additionally, given that a majority of the SOL is time-locked for FTX, we could very well see a 'sell the rumor, buy the news’ event playing out on Tuesday,» he added.
