With this in mind they advised that the Fed might not cut rates as much as many would hope:

Boivin recommends that in spite of near-term inflation nearing Fed targets, relentless medium-term inflation will restrict rate cuts. Economic downturn worries have actually pressed 10-year yields to 15-month lows as markets rate in aggressive rate decreases.
Even as inflation is falling towards the Fed’s target in the near term, greater inflation over the medium term will restrict how far the Fed can cut rates, we believe. Development jitters and cooling inflation have actually driven 10-year yields to 15-month lows as financiers have actually priced in more than 100 basis points of cuts by year-end and about 240 basis points of cuts over the next 12 months– indicating a Fed reaction to an economic crisis.

According to Ryan Rasmussen, Head of Research at BitwiseInvest, signed up financial investment consultants (RIAs) are assigning as much as 6% of crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to portfolios, with 4% in Bitcoin and 2% in Ethereum.
Remarkably, he states these RIAs “offered the Nasdaq 100 (tech stocks) to purchase Ethereum”.
This recommends that markets do not concur with BlackRock’s evaluation; rather, they appear to anticipate rates to be cut to 3.5% over the next 6 months, according to Charlie Bilello, Chief Market Strategist at Creative Planning:
