Federal Reserve members equated Bitcoin to gold on May 18 2026, challenging skeptics who still question its monetary role after the last twelve months of institutional inflows.
BTC price prediction models now factor in fresh regulatory language that treats the asset as digital gold rather than a speculative token.
On the 4-hour chart Bitcoin holds a bearish structure below the EMA50 at $79211.16 and EMA200 at $77378.99. MACD prints a death cross at -771.52 while RSI at 31.78 stays neutral, leaving price inside the Bollinger Bands with upper resistance at $80532.81 and lower support at $76335.91; a retest of the 50-EMA appears the next logical step before any sustained move higher.
