"The European Central Bank (ECB) will raise policy rates by 25bp on 21 July and effectively commit to a hike of at least 50 bps in September, we expect, sticking to plans agreed at the June meeting," according to strategists at BNP Paribas, as reported by CoinDesk. This is also impacting the crypto market. The anticipation of a rate hike by the ECB is also impacting the assets, along with the US Fed rate hike thoughts. The government bonds are going to be more profitable further, and volatile assets will be under pressure.
