<p>Overheated cryptocurrency markets have raised concerns that the Federal Reserve may pause planned interest rate cuts. The booming performance of digital assets like Bitcoin is being viewed by some analysts as potential "froth" that could prompt the Fed to maintain its hawkish stance to contain inflation. However, Bitcoin's $1.3 trillion market cap pales in comparison to the $50 trillion valuation of traditional finance sectors, suggesting overblown worries.</p>
<p>Tom Lee, a renowned market analyst, believes the tech sector's consolidation is a healthy sign of market broadening rather than a bursting bubble. He notes that while rate hikes could derail the equity rally if inflation resurges, a policy-induced recession poses the bigger threat. The Fed is treading a fine line, and its actions in June will be closely watched for clues on future rate moves.</p>

<p>Despite regulatory headwinds, with the SEC delaying some Bitcoin ETF decisions, industry experts remain bullish on Bitcoin's prospects. Ron Hammond highlights the regulatory clarity brought by recent hearings and the CFTC chair's stance on Ethereum as a commodity. The approval of an Ethereum ETF could be the next major catalyst for the crypto market.</p>
<p>The upcoming Ethereum "Denon" upgrade is highly anticipated, expected to boost Layer 2 scalability and reduce gas fees. Projects like Polygon are already witnessing a surge in transactions, underscoring the potential impact of Denon. With the upgrade just days away, Ethereum could potentially breach the $4,000 mark over the weekend.</p>
<p>While regulatory and economic uncertainties loom, prominent analysts like Tom Lee are projecting a Bitcoin price target of over $150,000 within the next 12-18 months. The improving supply dynamics with the upcoming Bitcoin halving, coupled with growing institutional demand, paint a favorable backdrop for the world's largest cryptocurrency to continue its ascent.</p>
