Bitcoin maintains level as investors keep an eye on key interest rate decision

The market leader continues to trade above $27k, up by 0.9%, this morning as all eyes are fixed on the Federal Reserve Bank’s interest rate decision later today.
Ethereum is marginally dipping into the red and changing hands for $1,630.
Crypto and stock markets seem generally muted, and the SP500 remains virtually unchanged at negative 0.2%.
Most market analysts agree that the Fed will keep rates unchanged but say that the US central bank is not ready to close the chapter on the current hiking cycle just yet.
