-ETH has fallen for 4 consecutive days, with a 24-hour drop of 5.48%. Compared with BTC, it has fallen into a weak trend again.

##Macro: Iran launched missiles in retaliation against Israel, markets fall down
The current market environment is complex and volatile. The uncertainty of the extent of the Fed’s interest rate cuts and unexpected events are disturbing the market.
 
On this Monday, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's hawkish remarks lowered market expectations for a 50 basis point rate cut in November, causing short-term volatility in the U.S. stock market. However, in the end, the three major indexes still closed slightly higher, and the overall performance in September was strong. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 both hit new closing highs and achieved five consecutive monthly increases.
 
Although there is debate in the short term about the extent of the Fed's interest rate cuts, in the long run, it has become a market consensus that the Fed has a lot of room for interest rate cuts, which will be beneficial to long-term liquidity easing for global stock markets and crypto markets.
 
However, last night Iran launched a missile attack on Israel in military retaliation, and short-term panic quickly had a price impact on the US stock and crypto markets, causing the market to fall. From historical experience, conflicts in the Middle East often lead to a fall in asset prices such as the <a href="/uk/price" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">crypto market</a>.
 
##Conclusion
Generally speaking，the Bitcoin market is currently showing positive signs, with spot ETFs maintaining a net inflow trend, stablecoin minting rising, which is a clear signal of capital inflow. In September, Bitcoin closed up 7.35%, a great achievement, and historical data shows that after closing up in September, the upward trend often continues until the end of the year, so the market performance in October is also worth looking forward to.
 
However, the market is also facing multiple challenges, including the uncertainty of the Fed's policy and the geopolitical tensions caused by Iran's missile attack on Israel. These short-term factors have caused short-term disturbances to the market. Although the Fed's long-term interest rate cut space is beneficial to the market, investors still need to be cautious in dealing with the current complex and volatile market environment.
