The Fed held rates at 3.50%–3.75% on a 9–3 vote. The headline isn’t the hold — it’s the 3 dissenters who wanted a 25bps hike. And they didn’t even agree on _why_: - Lorie Logan, Dallas: Inflation is stuck ∼2.5%. Policy isn’t tight enough. - Neel Kashkari, Minneapolis: Hike anyway. Better to be too tight than caught off guard. - Beth Hammack, Cleveland: Full reasoning still pending. Three different cases for hiking = a cracked consensus. That’s what markets are watching ahead of September. $BTC felt it too — down 3.2% to $62,600 as the hawkish pushback sank in. #DailyOrbit @OKX Orbit #SoftPCEStrongDemand #AMZNMissesButRallies
