Bitcoin is stable due to a lack of regulatory news, but the upcoming Litecoin fork and potential state-level tax acceptance for crypto introduce short-term volatility and potential bullish catalysts for specific altcoins. However, bearish sentiment persists with some analysts expressing skepticism about Bitcoin's current valuation, and ongoing regulatory uncertainty in key markets like South Korea continues to weigh on the broader market.
