Finding Golden Opportunities in Cryptocurrency Amidst Volatility
In the financial market, volatility is a topic that we always discuss, especially in the case of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. With the approval of Bitcoin ETF this year and Bitcoin breaking through its historical high, it has once again ignited a heated discussion about whether Bitcoin can surpass $100,000. However, market volatility is always unexpected. As of August 21, 2024, 11:10:30 GMT, the price of Bitcoin was 59,395.2, a decrease of 14,402.6 compared to the highest price of $73,797.8 this year, which has undoubtedly taught us a vivid lesson. Next, let's analyze the reasons for Bitcoin's decline and find the golden investment opportunities.

Reasons behind Volatility: Interweaving of Macroeconomic and Political Factors
The reasons for this decline are complex, involving multiple levels of global economic conditions, monetary policy adjustments, and geopolitical tensions. The global economic turmoil, stock market decline, central bank policy changes, and geopolitical tensions have all significantly impacted the market. In addition, specific events such as JUMP's operations and tensions in the Israeli-Palestinian region have also intensified market volatility.
Rate Cut Expectations and Market Reactions: Not Always Good News
Rate cuts can lower deposit rates and borrowing costs, thereby promoting capital flow to higher-risk investment areas such as cryptocurrencies, so it is generally seen as good news for the market. However, the market's reaction may be unexpected when the rate cut actually occurs. Since rate cut expectations have dominated market sentiment since the second half of 2022 and have become one of the key catalysts for the surge in Bitcoin prices, the actual rate cut may only cause a mild market reaction.
Two-Party Political Attitudes: Impact on Cryptocurrency Market
As cryptocurrencies move towards the center of the US political stage, the attitude of the two parties towards cryptocurrencies has become an important factor affecting the market. Therefore, whether it is the Republican Party's tendency towards a more open attitude or the Democratic Party's advocacy for strengthening regulation of cryptocurrencies, policy implementation will have a profound impact on the cryptocurrency market.
Gold versus Bitcoin: Short-Term versus Long-Term Comparison
Gold and Bitcoin are both popular safe-haven assets. Although gold has performed better than Bitcoin recently, Bitcoin has outperformed gold and other asset classes over the past decade. We can see that Bitcoin's ten-year holding yield is as high as 18,719%, indicating that Bitcoin is still a worthwhile investment option in the context of global monetary easing policies.
Investor Strategy: How to Seize Opportunities Amidst Volatility
For investors who want to seize opportunities in the cryptocurrency market, dollar-cost averaging is a strategy worth considering, which means investing in a selected digital currency portfolio in a regular and fixed amount, reducing investment risk during market volatility and having the opportunity to buy more shares at lower prices. In addition, investors can choose to allocate some funds to Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies to obtain higher returns.
Lastly, as investment master Warren Buffett said, "Be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful." In this game of volatility, may we all become wise investors who seize opportunities.
