Bitcoin Price Volatility
There are some major factors associated with Bitcoin price volatility. The analysts claim that the recent surge of Bitcoin may be attributed to an impression among US investors regarding the devaluation of USD.
The pressure on the fiat stems from the ongoing speculation around the US presidential elections. The analysis was shared by crypto custodian firm Copper that noted the increased probability of the second term election of US president Donald Trump.
The analysis report retained that prospect has led to speculation among investors about USD price changes. In the last 7 days, Bitcoin gained 6% in spot prices going from $63,500 to $68,000 during a week. The analysts at Copper have retained that Bitcoin price has remained historically inversely proportional to USD index DXY.
The report shared projections from 2017 and 2021 rallies when Bitcoin recorded new ATHs in the context of USD weakening. The report also posits that Bitcoin price dynamics often indicate a complex link with USD performing weak to strong.
Fadi Aboualfa, the head of research at Copper, noted that investment firms tend to lean towards volatile assets to delivery growth results persistently.
The Copper report further stated that the DXY strength is not a direct contributor to Bitcoin ascend rather the spot prices are shaped by reigning perception among investors. The report noted during the first presidential term of Donald Trump, DXY declined by 7% characterized by tax cuts, boosted economic growth and the rise in fiscal deficit. Some pressure on the USD was sourced by trade restrictions and tariff awards.
