$BTC Bitcoin ($BTC) remains the dominant cryptocurrency, serving as both a store of value and a speculative asset. Despite market volatility, institutional adoption grows, with ETFs, corporate treasuries, and nation-states like El Salvador accumulating BTC. Its fixed supply of 21 million coins reinforces its scarcity, appealing as a hedge against inflation. However, regulatory scrutiny, macroeconomic shifts, and competition from altcoins pose risks. Recent price swings highlight its speculative nature, but long-term believers see it as "digital gold." For now, BTC continues to shape the crypto market—its movements often dictating broader trends. #Bitcoin #Crypto #BTC
