$BTC Bitcoin (BTC) remains highly volatile, influenced by macroeconomic trends, regulatory news, and institutional adoption. Recently, its price has fluctuated due to shifting Fed rate expectations, ETF inflows, and geopolitical uncertainty. While some see BTC as a hedge against inflation and dollar weakness, others warn of speculative risks. Major catalysts ahead include the 2024 halving, which historically boosts prices, and potential SEC decisions on crypto regulations. Long-term, Bitcoin's value hinges on adoption as "digital gold" and its role in decentralized finance. Investors should brace for sharp swings but monitor growing institutional interest as a sign of maturing market confidence.$BTC
