Bitcoin continues to showcase its characteristic volatility amidst a critical stage, with market participants focused on economic discussions and Federal Reserve decisions.

Market participants widely expect that the Fed will lower interest rates for the first time this year, but the extent of this cut remains under discussion. Analysts view the $110,000–$116,000 range as critical for maintaining support levels, a breach of which could push Bitcoin to new lows.
Rising Institutional Investments in Digital Assets
Meanwhile, the allure of institutional investors towards digital assets continues to grow. Last week saw a substantial net inflow into US Bitcoin ETFs amounting to $2.2 billion, indicating increasing trust in crypto assets. SC Ventures, the investment arm of Standard Chartered, confirms its commitment to exploring digital assets with a capital raise of $250 million.
Impact of Regulatory Changes on the Cryptocurrency Market
The confirmation of Stephen Miran, known for his positive stance towards crypto assets, brings fresh perspectives to the Federal Reserve's governance. He has expressed a desire to contribute to a balanced approach that includes digital currencies. This shift at the regulatory level could significantly alter perceptions of digital assets.
With ongoing regulatory changes and a growing institutional interest, the digital asset market is becoming increasingly complex and intertwined with traditional financial structures.
