Regulatory uncertainty has long been a cloud over the crypto space. However, recent developments suggest that clarity is on the horizon. Several countries are working on establishing clear regulatory frameworks for digital assets, providing a more stable environment for investors.

Additionally, on the technical side BTC has formed a bullish ascending triangle structure in the last few weeks, which tends to form ahead of bullish breakouts.
