The stability of Bitcoin was underscored this week, with a report from Fidelity Digital Assets revealing that 95% of the cryptocurrency's supply remained untouched last month. This comes in spite of Bitcoin experiencing a dip to $27,180 and a 10-day low of $27,000.

The cryptocurrency's growth potential is further buoyed by the robust U.S. economy, which recently added 336,000 jobs. Moreover, the cessation of the bond market sell-off could herald a new bull market for risk assets such as Bitcoin. Future market events like the so-called "Christmas rally" and the April 2024 Bitcoin halving also offer a positive outlook for the digital asset.

Federal Reserve decisions and regulatory clarity on a Bitcoin spot ETF could significantly influence Bitcoin's price. The upcoming Bitcoin halving event in April 2024 may also have significant implications for the cryptocurrency's value.

Despite briefly rising above $28,000, Bitcoin, along with other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Binance Coin, and various altcoins including Solana, Cardano, Dogecoin, Tron, Polkadot, Polygon, Avalanche, and Cosmos are currently facing declines. However, the resilience demonstrated by the majority of Bitcoin's supply remaining unscathed amidst these fluctuations suggests an underlying stability in the asset.

While these cryptocurrencies navigate current challenges, the market is keeping a close watch on potential catalysts such as Federal Reserve decisions and regulatory developments concerning Bitcoin spot ETFs that could influence their trajectories.
