Matt Menah, 21Shares' cryptocurrency strategist, said that it is difficult to predict the performance of Bitcoin due to the randomness of short-term trends. He said that cryptocurrencies react to major catalysts such as macroeconomic data, central bank decisions, and regulatory developments. However, Bitcoin also has "very technical characteristics," so chart levels play an important role in its trends compared to traditional assets. Another factor to consider is that it trades around the clock on a series of globally dispersed exchanges, each with different levels of liquidity. This, coupled with increasing algorithm participation and on-chain data signals, means that price movements may sometimes be driven by technical, positional, or automated strategies rather than fundamental news.
