Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek predicts that the upcoming interest rate cuts of the US Central Bank will herald a strong fourth quarter of 2025 for the Cryptomarkt.
In conversation with Bloomberg, he indicates that the conversion of his company will probably get better this year, “especially if we see an interest rate reduction and follow a strong Q4.”
Interest reduction is good for Cryptomarkt
The way of thinking of Marszalek is somewhat simple. He states that interest rates of the US central bank are usually good for crypto, because borrowing makes you cheaper and more liquidity becomes available for risk investments such as Bitcoin.
In principle, that is true, but then the economic conditions must remain the same. The US central bank usually lowers interest rates if the economy is less.
It is certainly not law that the rates of financial assets rise after an interest reduction. This time that could be, because the American economy still looks solid and an interest reduction unnecessary.
On the other hand, almost everyone has the opinion of Marszalek that the rates should rise as a result. For that reason, it may be that the interest rate reduction is already largely priced by the market. At the moment they see a chance of almost 90 percent on an interest rate reduction in September on the Futuresmarkt.
Furthermore, in the conversation with Bloomberg, Marszalek indicates that Crypto.com has the figures to go to the stock market.
But that they also like to be a private company at the moment, and that they have not yet made a decision about a possible IPO.
“I have to admit that it is attractive to consider these options,” said Marszalek in response to a stock exchange listing. Several crypto companies of course already managed to realize a rating of several billions of dollars after their debut at the fair.
Financially, this would also be attractive to Marszalek, because it would enable him to sell part of his company and walk in on it. Although you can ask the extent to which someone with the position of Marszalek needs even more money.
