Renowned trader warns about the "FOMC curse": Bitcoin has dropped after 7 out of the last 8 FOMC meetings since last year.

BlockBeats news, on June 17, well-known trader Killa (@KillaXBT) stated that tomorrow's FOMC meeting is an important event for Bitcoin. Of the eight FOMC meetings since 2025, Bitcoin has shown a bearish reaction seven times. Although the market has currently formed a bullish narrative, the outcome is usually priced in before the news.

Killa believes that Bitcoin needs to stay above $64,000 to maintain a bullish structure; otherwise, after the FOMC meeting, there is a significant risk of returning to the $60,000 low.

As a quantitative trader focused on BTC, Killa predicted the top of this bull market in May 2025 and has more than 200,000 followers on the X platform. In mid-April, he shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 and switched to a full long position during the market-wide downturn on June 5.
