The FOMC Impact?
Trading volumes for Bitcoin have seen a significant drop since July 15, 2023, when there was a $8.01 billion daily volume compared to the $20 billion it clocked the days before. Hence, the July 26, 2023 meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) could likely initiate a cycle of volatility for Bitcoin price, as was seen around the previous US Fed meetings.

Also scheduled for the week is U.S. PCE inflation Index data on Friday, July 28, 2023. The CME FedWatch Tool projects a 99.2% chance for an interest rate rise to the 525-550 bps range in the upcoming meeting.
