$BTC Bitcoin (BTC) continues to dominate the crypto market, acting as both a store of value and a hedge against traditional inflation. Despite fluctuations, its decentralized nature, limited supply of 21 million coins, and increasing institutional adoption make it a strong contender for long-term growth. Recent halving events and global financial uncertainty have drawn renewed attention. Investors watch on-chain metrics, regulatory developments, and macroeconomic trends closely. With Lightning Network improving scalability and more countries exploring crypto regulations, Bitcoin’s position in the financial world is strengthening. Still, it's crucial to manage risk and stay informed in this volatile, evolving space.
