Bitcoin’s short-term volatility often links to regulatory updates—e.g., 2024’s U.S. SEC decisions on ETFs. Positive rulings boost institutional inflows; bans (like some Asian nations) trigger sell-offs. Other drivers: macro rates (Fed policy) and whale transactions. Investors should track regulatory calendars and monitor ETF flow data to gauge near-term trends, balancing exposure to avoid sudden swings.
