Bitcoin and Ethereum have been having a tough time. The problems began again at the end of August when Jerome Powell, the leader of the Federal Reserve, made a five-minute speech suggesting the agency was going to be ruthless in its attempts to curb inflation. Bitcoin Ain’t Doing So Hot This, of course, means people can potentially look forward to further rate hikes, which have not done well for bitcoin. Every time rates go up, bitcoin’s price goes down along with the...

Bitcoin took another hefty fall in late August. The world’s number one digital currency by market cap fell to just over $20,000 following the speech given by Jerome Powell of the Fed in which he talked about the state of the economy.

Bitcoin saw its price plunge in late August following a slow, but steady bull run. It looked like the world’s leading digital currency by market cap was on the verge of striking a $25,000 chord, but that clearly was not meant to be as things eventually took a turn for the worse and the asset dipped into the low $20K region again.

Many analysts assumed that $25,000 was right around the corner. Bitcoin Has Jumped a Few Thousand Bucks There appear to be several reasons as to why bitcoin suddenly surged, a big one being that recession fears are starting to dwindle. There have been several worries permeating the financial space as of...

Late July saw bitcoin rise above the $23,000 mark for the first time in over a week. The world’s number one digital currency saw itself spike after the Fed decided to push rates another 75 points. Bitcoin Spikes Following Rate Hikes The behavior is just more proof that bitcoin is very unpredictable, as up to this point, ongoing rate hikes have often been the leading culprit behind the bitcoin dips we’ve been witnessing in recent weeks. Bitcoin has been on something of a...

The bitcoin price has been going through some tough times in the month of May. The currency has been trading in the high $30,000 range after several market factors – including rumors that the Fed was going to hike rates and growing conflict in eastern Europe between Ukraine and Russia – took the world’s number one digital currency by market cap down nearly 50 percent from its November 2021 high. At that time, BTC was trading at nearly $70,000. The Fed Won’t Hike Rates...

With the price of bitcoin dropping even further and further down (at the time of writing, the world’s leading digital asset is trading for just under $38,000), many are wondering what kind of rough factors await the crypto space. How Much Lower Will Bitcoin Go? 2022 has been a rough year for BTC and its altcoin cousins, especially when one considers the fact that roughly six months ago, the granddaddy of all crypto was trading for about $30,000 more than where it...

Leave it to the Fed to say something stupid that ultimately brings down the prices of bitcoin and many of its altcoin cousins. The world’s number one digital currency is now trading for just over $40K at the time of writing after Jerome Powell of the Federal Reserve commented that the agency is looking to hike rates again next month as a way of combating inflation. The Fed Will Hike Rates Again In addition to bitcoin, assets like Ethereum fell by more than five percent,...
