<h2 id="btc-remains-stable-before-fomc-meeting">BTC Remains Stable Before FOMC Meeting</h2> 
<p>All eyes of investors are currently on the FOMC meeting scheduled on Wednesday, July 31. After the early-week sell-off, the <a href="https://coingape.com/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bitcoin price</a> showed some stability at around $66,000 as investors waited for the Fed’s commentary on inflation and economic growth.</p> 
<p>Macro indicators would play a key role in determining the Bitcoin price action moving ahead. The baseline scenario is currently a slow decline in inflation and growth, with the chances of recession not so high, as per data from BloFin.</p>

Furthermore, with the weekly expiry approaching, BloFin expects the volatility to intensify further.
