Bitcoin hovers near $63,000 despite softer US inflation as weak liquidity weighs on crypto

Bitcoin hovered near $63,000 as weak liquidity and subdued institutional demand offset softer U.S. inflation data. Bitcoin and Ethereum declined 1.31% and 0.70%, respectively, while major altcoins also weakened. Spot Bitcoin volumes plunged to a six-year low, while ETF outflows signalled cautious institutional sentiment, limiting near-term upside prospects.
