Bitcoin remains resilient post-FOMC as market eyes US interest rates and Middle East tensions

According to a weekly report by bitbank analyst Yuya Hasegawa, Bitcoin (BTC) has maintained a firm price level around 12.1 million JPY as of midday on the 18th. Despite a lack of clear direction, the market was supported by the successful passage of the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data and concerns over fiscal policy, even as US long-term interest rates trended upward.
