While previous rate hikes by the Federal Reserve have slowed the crypto-asset's expansion, a potential rate cut could create a more suitable habitat for btc.
Furthermore, increased institutional demand driven by the potential approval of physical exchange-traded funds (ETFs) could help further increase bitcoin's liquidity and mainstream acceptance.
