The Fed's monetary policy may drop Bitcoin to $15 thousand


July, 11 2022

Experts suggest that if the Fed continues to keep interest rates at high levels for a long time, most risky assets will be under strong pressure. As a result, the rate of the most popular cryptocurrency, bitcoin, may fall to $15 thousand. 


There is an opinion among analysts that the Fed will keep interest rates at high levels for a long time due to fears of a repeat of the situation of the 1970-s, when the fight against inflation was curtailed too early and further price growth got out of control. That is why now the regulator must make sure of the victory over inflation, and only then proceed to change the strategy. 


It is also worth noting that the US dollar, being a safe haven currency, still feels confident, despite the fact that the need for its purchases should have disappeared. The reason for this was serious problems in other economies, in particular the eurozone: an increasing number of analysts and market players are confident that a recession is coming – and it is expected that GDP will decline even if Russian gas supplies remain.


If we consider only the cryptocurrency market, then from time to time you can observe rebounds from local lows, but there is no talk of a full-fledged recovery rally yet. The current bitcoin quote is $20,186.
