The delay of Trump's policies has significantly impacted the cryptocurrency market sentiment. Bitcoin's price has corrected by over 6%, with its volatility surging. This is because investors had high hopes for pro - crypto policies from Trump, such as the possible inclusion of Bitcoin in the national reserve. The lack of such clear policies has led to uncertainty. Short - term traders, in particular, are withdrawing funds, causing Bitcoin to lose its upward momentum and enter a more volatile and downward - trending phase.
