ECB speeches seen impacting markets like policy moves; Bitcoin eyes volatility

This heightened sensitivity could drive volatility across risk assets, including Bitcoin, particularly if rhetoric shifts expectations for liquidity or interest rates. Bitcoin may remain choppy as traders position ahead of clearer ECB guidance and broader macroeconomic developments.
