  At BYDFi, we believe that the current SOFR index has a limited direct impact on digital asset prices. While the SOFR index is an important benchmark for short-term interest rates, digital asset prices are primarily driven by factors such as market demand, investor sentiment, and technological advancements. However, changes in the SOFR index can indirectly influence digital asset prices by affecting overall market conditions. For example, if the SOFR index increases significantly, it may signal tighter monetary policy and higher borrowing costs, which could lead to a decrease in digital asset prices. Conversely, if the SOFR index decreases significantly, it may signal looser monetary policy and lower borrowing costs, which could lead to an increase in digital asset prices. It's important to consider the broader market dynamics and not solely rely on the SOFR index when analyzing the impact on digital asset prices.
