June 15: A majority of institutional investors hold that Bitcoin still has further downside potential, with overall market sentiment remaining cautious. Macroeconomic uncertainty, tighter liquidity, ETF outflows, and capital shifting to AI and other sectors continue to weigh on BTC’s price. David Grider, Partner at Finality Capital, noted his firm expects Bitcoin’s current market bottom could arrive in late Q3 or early Q4 of 2026, with BTC bottoming in the $45,000–$55,000 range.

June 15 — This week’s policy-setting interest rate meeting marked the first time Kevin Warsh has presided over the gathering in his new role as Federal Reserve Chair. While markets had priced in no change to borrowing costs, Wall Street was laser-focused on his communication style to gauge the Fed’s future policy trajectory. Nick Timiraos, *The Wall Street Journal*’s chief economics reporter — widely known as the “Fed Whisperer” — noted Warsh has limited flexibility to shift interest rates in the current environment.
