The situation is exacerbated by a lack of significant liquidity in the market. This creates a pyramid structure, after which the asset takes a long time to recover.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Bitcoin remains stable despite limited liquidity presence. Analysts noted that a new wave of growth for digital gold would require one of the following factors:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>easing of monetary policy by the <span data-descr=\"Federal Reserve System of the United States\" class=\"old_tooltip\">Fed<\/span>;<\/li>\n<li>an increase in stablecoin supply;<\/li>\n<li>a macroeconomic boost such as an increase in the money supply.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, current indicators suggest a low likelihood of significant capital inflow into the industry in the near future, Matrixport emphasized.<\/p>\n<p>Market activity remains low: Bitcoin ETF trading volumes are limited, and stablecoin issuance has sharply declined. This confirms weak investor interest, who are currently focused on <span data-descr=\"traditional finance\" class=\"old_tooltip\">TradFi<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Pressure is mounting due to economic uncertainty related to the reassessment of trade policies and tariffs.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the correction, the first cryptocurrency demonstrates high resilience, analysts noted. The risks of strict regulation and bans observed in the past have diminished.<\/p>\n<p>Back in April, the <span data-descr=\"Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States\" class=\"old_tooltip\">SEC<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/forklog.com\/en\/news\/sec-approves-options-on-spot-ethereum-etfs\">approved<\/a> the listing and trading of options on ETH-ETF by BlackRock, Bitwise, and Grayscale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following the launch of spot Ethereum ETFs in the US in the summer of 2024, the market share of the second-largest cryptocurrency by capitalization has nearly halved.
