Market players are increasingly betting on further monetary easing from the Bank of England. The latest consensus suggests traders are now positioning for around 60 basis points of rate cuts by the end of 2026.



This shift reflects growing expectations that BoE will continue its cutting cycle, potentially driven by softer economic data or inflation moderating faster than anticipated. For crypto and broader asset traders, central bank moves like these matter—looser monetary policy typically increases liquidity flowing into risk assets and can support alternative investments like digital assets during easing cycles.

The pricing now shows traders aren't waiting for confirmation; they're front-running the narrative. Whether this pans out depends on UK economic conditions over the coming quarters. If inflation stays stubborn or growth holds firm, BoE might dial back expectations. But right now, the market is clearly dancing to an easing tune.

The BoE is about to loosen monetary policy again, and the crypto market will take off once more. Flooding the market, the onlookers will probably get their韭菜 (chives) cut again. Playing out the pre-trade routine has become boring; in the end, it's just another dump. 60 basis points? Is that enough, brother? Still too conservative. Good news is often followed by bad news, and this time won't be an exception. Ample liquidity is good, but can we small investors get a share of the soup? That's how the BoE operates—promising rate cuts but prioritizing growth preservation. British money is easy to cut; let's keep期待ing next time, haha. Those who stood guard earlier can now rest assured, at least new blood is entering the market. When the crypto market senses a rate cut, it will surge, and everyone will follow suit again.

Everyone is front-running the Bank of England's rate cut narrative, but once the actual economic data is released, it will probably be a slaughter again.

Wait, will the BoE really be that aggressive? It feels like the hawkish signals in the early stage have only been a few months. The front-runners are betting on rate cuts, while the later ones have to bet that it won't cut... this game is a bit ruthless. If UK economic data gets any stronger, this 60bp increase will be wiped out instantly. Let's see who ends up crying. Is this an opportunity to buy the dip? Or just another market self-indulgence. It seems like we are about to be turned around again by Powell and his crew haha. The market is pricing in an uncertain future wildly — a typical gambler's mentality. If rates are cut, it’s good news for the crypto world. If they fake a cut... hehe, it’s time to cut losses.

The pound is about to start easing again, and this time the expectation of a 60 basis point rate cut seems a bit aggressive. The previous rate cut cycle hasn't been fully digested yet, and now they're already preparing for the next round? But on the other hand, increased liquidity is indeed a positive for the crypto market, as historical experience shows. I'm just worried that the BoE might back out at the last minute, and inflation suddenly rears its head to cause trouble, which would be quite awkward.

lmao everyone's front-running the same narrative... classic paper hands behavior. 60bps by 2026? that's weak signal territory ngl. inflation's stubborn af, but sure let's all pretend BoE's cutting hard. crypto will pump either way—this is just accumulation phase noise tbh.

The GBP rate-cut cycle has begun, and the crypto world has more stories to tell Loose monetary policy = liquidity explosion, not quite there yet Let's wait and see if the BoE can really follow through, don't cry wolf again Traders have already been betting on these 60 basis points, it's a bit crazy If inflation stubbornly refuses to decrease, what if the BoE chickens out... then it gets awkward

Starting to front-run again, can we not crash the market this time? The market expects a 60 basis point cut by the BoE, but the coins haven't risen yet... what's going on? 60 basis points? Wake up, inflation isn't coming down that fast. I've seen through it long ago, the easing cycle is just a crazy bottom-fishing time. Wait, is someone sure this isn't a rebound? Feels like it's about to break down. Liquidity has come in, but the TradFi folks are still dumping, it's really outrageous. The BoE's move was well played, so we'll just wait and enjoy the gains.
