There are no significant developments on the macroeconomic front, and as we enter the holiday season, it is expected that this situation will continue until the end of the year. Below, you can see the market’s interest rate expectations for 2025 (from meeting to meeting). If the upcoming data in the new year changes this outlook, we will see its effects on the BTC chart.
While altcoin unlockings are not significant, the delisting actions from Binance have already been factored in by relevant altcoins, indicating a potential new drop. Overall, we may experience a calm week; however, events such as Trump suddenly mentioning Bitcoin could trigger parabolic rises.
