Goldman Sachs analyst Kay Haigh pointed out that the Federal Reserve is approaching the end of its "preventive rate cuts," and further weakening of the labor market will be needed to support new easing policies. The Fed's hawkish stance and policy statements suggest that rate cuts are still possible, but a higher level of softness must be achieved.

The median of the Federal Reserve dot plot shows an expectation of one rate cut in 2026, one rate cut in 2027, and a hold in 2028. There are clear disagreements regarding rate hikes, holds, and cuts in 2026.

BlockBeats News, December 11 – Recently, mortgage rates have eased somewhat, but the trend remains unstable. The Federal Reserve does not directly control mortgage rates through the federal funds rate; instead, the main 30-year mortgage rate typically follows the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield, which is influenced by market expectations of future economic trends and monetary policy. This means that sometimes mortgage rates can differ from the Federal Reserve's decisions to cut rates or keep short-term rates steady. For example, when the Fed cut rates in September, market uncertainty about whether further cuts would follow actually pushed up mortgage rates. While this upcoming meeting may not replicate such a scenario, its outcome could still disturb the 10-year Treasury yield and indirectly impact mortgage rates. Investors, prospective homebuyers, and homeowners are all highly focused on mortgage rate movements. However, the current fluctuations in mortgage rates have a significant effect on the overall

Golden Finance reports that on Wednesday, as investors locked in some profits ahead of the Federal Reserve's rate decision and main Powell's press conference, gold prices declined slightly; silver, after touching a historical high during the session, oscillated narrowly below record highs. High Ridge Futures metals trading director David Meger said: “We may be entering a 'pause after rate cuts' path. But we still believe gold prices are generally in a sideways but stronger upward trend, and this is just a slight pause.” This meeting was the most divisive in years: policymakers, on one hand, need to weigh the necessity of rate cuts to support the labor market, while on the other hand, they are concerned that such measures could once again boost inflation.

BlockBeats News, December 10 — After investing hundreds of billions of dollars to build the most expensive team in tech history for months, Meta CEO Zuckerberg is now deeply involved in daily R&D and is pushing the company's strategy toward directly monetizable AI models. According to sources, a new model codenamed "Avocado" is expected to be released in Spring 2026 and may be launched in a closed-source manner (i.e., strictly controlled by Meta and sold for access). This move marks a significant deviation from Meta's long-standing advocacy of an open-source approach. Zuckerberg is dedicating a large amount of time to a core team called TBD Lab, which, during the training of Avocado, even integrated third-party models including Google Gemma, OpenAIgpt-oss, and Alibaba Qwen.

PANews December 10 News, according to Cointelegraph, Vitalik Buterin states that the occasional "loss of finality" on Ethereum does not pose a serious risk, with the key being to avoid "incorrect finalization." During this delay in finality caused by a Prysm client vulnerability, the chain can still operate normally. Ethereum expert Fabrizio Romano Genovese said that when finality is temporarily lost, Ethereum is more similar to Bitcoin, with its finality being probabilistic; Ethereum's rule is: when a block receives over 66% validator votes, it becomes "Justified," and after two more rounds of Epochs (64 blocks), it becomes "Finalized." He pointed out that this situation occurred in May 2023. Polygon states cross-chain and

Odaily Planet Daily Report: Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on X platform stating that occasionally losing finality is not a big deal. Finality is intended to ensure that blocks are not rolled back. If due to a significant client error, finality is delayed by a few hours, as long as the erroneous block is not finalized, the situation can be tolerated, and the chain will continue to operate during this period. Computer science PhD Fabrizio Romano Genovese agrees with Vitalik Buterin's view, noting that when finality is lost, Ethereum becomes more like Bitcoin. He explained that Ethereum's finality mechanism is that when a block receives more than

According to BlockBeats news, on December 10th, CryptoQuant analyst Axel posted on social media that Bitcoin has regained its bullish structure after a pullback to $80,000. The move comes against the backdrop of the market almost fully pricing in a third consecutive rate cut by the Fed, which will improve financial conditions and open a window for further asset gains without Powell releasing hawkish surprise signals. Since the peak pullback to the $80,000 range in October, the price has shown a steady upward trend over the past 14 days. The key signal is: the 200-day moving average (DMA) slope (blue histogram) has turned positive for the first time in a month, indicating that short-term bullish momentum has returned. The current price has stood above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the trend is confirmed. The 52-week high (orange line) forms a key resistance level – once breached, it will be a follow-up
