Bitcoin has managed to stop its slight losses from yesterday and has now crossed the $77,000 level, and at this time it is showing a gain of 0.25%. At the beginning of this month, Bitcoin was trying to stay above the $80,000, and it had even touched the $83,000 level, but in the middle of this month, it started falling because the investors were a little worried about the uncertainty about the Fed new chairman.
Fed Chair Change Impacts Bitcoin
Now, if we talk about the thing that is affecting Bitcoin prices, then the very first thing that comes in it is the news about the selection of the new Fed chairman.
As everyone knows, Mr. Powell’s time as chairman has ended on 15th May, and he has been replaced by a man named Kevin Rush, who was the choice of President Donald Trump and he was made chairman through a Senate vote. In the voting, he received 54 votes in his favor and 45 votes against him, and most of the votes in his favor came from the Republicans, while the Democrats voted against him.
Kevin Rush has previously also worked in the Federal Reserve as a governor, and he served from 2006 to 2011 in the Federal Reserve, and because of this many people already know him and they see him as a cautious person who works very hard to control inflation, but this time many people are thinking whether he can reduce the interest rates quickly or not, and this is the thing that is increasing uncertainty in the market, which is affecting Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
On the other side of the story, many crypto fans are happy with the selection of this new chairman because this is the same person who in the past, called Bitcoin a “new gold for young people.” He has also said many positive things about new technology, blockchain, etc., and he has himself invested his own money in crypto-related assets. That is why people consider him very good for Bitcoin and other digital currencies, because he supports such things and financial ideas compared to the previous chairman.
Bitcoin Price Future Outlook
In contrast, many large companies and investors are still buying Bitcoin through special funds called ETFs, and this is also one reason why the price of Bitcoin has started to trade upwards.
Moreover, the current economic conditions of the whole world also affect Bitcoin, such as the rise and fall of oil prices, war in different countries, and changes in trade rules.
Considering all these things, many experts say that if Bitcoin manages to stay above the level of $77,000, then it will move back from $78,000 to $80,000, and even it can cross the level of $85,000 to $90,000 by the end of this year. Many experts are even estimating $100,000 and are thinking that if the Fed chairman gives some positive news and inflation goes down, then it can easily cross $100,000.
