BTC Ends the Week Range-Bound with No Influential Crypto Events

The week came to a calm close. Investors had to make decisions based on current regulatory action, US economic statistics, and Fed comments since there were no crypto events to provide guidance.

Friday's hawkish Fed comments probably reverberated into the weekend. Christopher Waller, a member of the FOMC, urged further rate increases to achieve the desired inflation rate. Waller said, "More monetary policy tightening is required. The degree of the tightening lending conditions and new statistics on inflation, the actual economy, and how much further will be determined.

The NASDAQ Composite Index fell on Friday as a result of Waller's remarks, while the dollar rose. Even if the US retail sales statistics were disappointing, raising even more concerns, the market nonetheless reacted favorably to the hawkish remarks.

Additionally, regulatory risk held BTC back from a $31,000 return. Prior to tomorrow's digital asset subcommittee hearing, the market became increasingly anxious as a result of the SEC's change in emphasis to the DeFi area. Gary Gensler, the chairman of the SEC, will probably be questioned by lawmakers about the demise of FTX and the SEC's policy of regulation by enforcement.
