  • Warsh said the rate hike resulted from economic strength and competition for capital
  • The Fed unanimously raised rates amid 7 weeks of economic strengthening
  • Warsh also linked the decision to geopolitical factors
Why it matters: The Fed's hawkish tone pressures risk assets, including bitcoin, and increases market volatility.
