Experts Say QE Could Ignite Crypto Boom! Is Bitcoin About to Go Boom or Bust?

by

Well, would you look at that! Federal Reserve Chair Jerome “Two Scoops of Pow” Powell has opened his mouth, and suddenly, everyone’s in a tizzy! Are we heading to a new crypto bull cycle powered by that sweet, sweet quantitative easing (QE)? Hold onto your wallets, folks! 💰

What do the so-called “experts” think about this possibility? Let’s dive in like we’re looking for the lost city of Atlantis but only find a pizza place instead! 🍕

Could the Fed Blow the Dust Off QE in a Few Months?

During his latest stand-up act at the National Association for Business Economics (NABE) conference on October 14, 2025 – no, I’m not kidding – Powell hinted that the Fed’s been thinking about ending its quantitative tightening (QT) program. Shocking, right? 🤯

He let slip that bank reserves are about as full as a Thanksgiving turkey! According to our buddy Powell, QT could be axed soon to avoid a liquidity no-no that might make the economy do the cha-cha way too slowly! 💃

Analysts, aka the people who wear glasses and drink herbal tea, insist that if QT ends, it’s “Hello QE!” – meaning the Fed could start splashing cash in the market like it’s splashing water on a hot stove! 🔥 It’s just like the good ol’ days of COVID-19 pandemonium, when Bitcoin did its best Super Mario impression from under $10,000 up to over $60,000! 🎉

The Fed might just say, “Surprise, QT’s over!”

This seismic shift will have altcoins doing the macarena! Arthur Hayes, the co-founder of BitMEX (and part-time fortune teller), boldly declared that QT is waving goodbye like an awkward relative. He also said it’s a prime buying time! 🛒💸

“Boom! QT is over! Back the truck up and buy everything you can possibly fit in, folks!” Arthur Hayes proclaimed. 🚛💨

And you know what? Some analysts think we’ll start feeling the effects of Powell’s shimmy-shake decision in just six months. Talk about anticipation, eh? 🍿

What Happens to Bitcoin If QT Waves Bye-Bye, But QE Doesn’t Start?

Now, not everyone’s pulling their party hats out of the closet. 🎩

For example, the ever-skeptical analyst Brett claims folks are reading too much into Powell’s little pow-wow. He pointed out that QE usually only makes a grand appearance when the federal funds rate is closer to zero than your grandma’s cooking skills. 🌪️ Spoiler alert: It’s at 4.2%!

So don’t get too excited, folks. Just because QT might end doesn’t mean we’re rolling out the red carpet for QE! 🎭

“Hey, look! QE (that blue shady area) doesn’t throw a party until the Fed funds rate is near zero! We still have a ways to go, folks! Unless we have an economic apocalypse, it’s gonna take some time,” Brett wisely said. 🧙‍♂️

As for Bitcoin’s melodrama, Brett thinks our favorite digital asset is more of a diva than a cash-in-and-out asset. It moves in cycles, my friends! Just like a Ferris wheel – round and round but never quite getting anywhere! 🎡

“Bitcoin doesn’t really care about QE & QT; it has its own cycle diva moves!

🟪 = Fed ending QT or QE
🟥 = QT
🟦 = QE

Notice how Bitcoin throws its own tantrums in both QT and QE. But hey, you do you, Bitcoin! 😂”

However, if we check the historical bingo card since 2011, it turns out Bitcoin loves a good slump after every QE or QT phase ends! Will this time be any different? Only time will tell! ⏳

So, in the grand scheme of things, if the Fed says “Let there be QE!” Bitcoin could moonwalk into the spotlight. But if they just throw QT out with the trash without dolling out new cash, oh boy, we could be in for some bumpy roads! 🛤️

Now, we eagerly await the data that could drop like the hottest mixtape about the Producer Price Index (PPI) and unemployment rates to gauge what the future holds! Get your popcorn ready! 🍿
