Is Kashkari’s rate‑hike warning actually bullish for Bitcoin?

Kashkari just dropped a “watch‑out” on another rate hike in 2026 and flagged sticky services inflation. That kind of hawkish tone usually scares equity markets, but I’m wondering if it could be a hidden catalyst for BTC. The 24‑hour move shows Bitcoin up about 0.99 % and ETH up roughly 0.70 % while the Fear & Greed index is sitting at a meager 15 – clearly in fear territory.
When the Fed leans harder on rates, we often see capital chase yield elsewhere, and crypto has been the go‑to “alternative” for a while now. If stocks get hammered, could we see a short‑term inflow into Bitcoin as a hedge? Or will the higher rates just squeeze liquidity and keep the market jittery? Curious to hear what the community thinks about the macro‑risk vs. crypto‑risk balance here.
