Bitcoin Trading

At the beginning of 2020, the coronavirus pandemic struck the entire world. Economies around the world were literally shut down as governments instituted curfew and lockdown restrictions. As other financial assets dwindled in value, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies sprung to life. Bitcoin proved to be the proverbial ‘digital gold’ and its value rose from lows of around $4,000 in the Q1 2020 to over $23,000 in December of the same year, smashing the previous highs printed in late 2017. In a year that investor portfolios suffered the effects of COVID-19, Bitcoin provided the much-needed cure! We offer you the ability to trade Bitcoin on this platforms, where you can trade it against the US Dollar, and other currencies 24/7.

Understanding Key Factors Influencing Bitcoin Price

Like any financial asset, the price of Bitcoin is dictated by the laws of supply and demand. Bitcoin has always been compared to gold in this regard, in that there is a finite number of coins that will ever be available. Beyond that, market participants will, over time, determine the fair value of Bitcoin depending on its use cases and adoption. Another major price influencer is media coverage. In its early years, the price of Bitcoin was constrained as the media branded it a passing cloud and a coin for the dark web. In this age of social media, such negative coverage can scare potential investors. However, positive media coverage of both Bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology has provided favourable fundamentals for the foremost cryptocurrency and emboldened investors.

Bitcoin trading may be decentralised, but the power of major governments around the world cannot be ignored. Bitcoin has been the subject of frequent changes in regulation in various aspects, including taxation. Part of the reason the price of Bitcoin fell sharply after the highs of late 2017 was massive regulatory pressures from China. But regulation is not necessarily a negative fundamental. In some instances, positive regulation serves as a tool to legitimise Bitcoin as a mainstream financial asset, and this can lead to increased demand.

Bitcoin’s price is also influenced by what happens within the Bitcoin community. Part of the reason the price of Bitcoin surged during the COVID-19 pandemic can be linked to the halving that happened in May 2020. Bitcoin halving is when the reward for mining Bitcoin is halved. This theoretically limits the supply of Bitcoin as the incentive to mine is reduced. With supply limited, demand increases, and the price of Bitcoin increases as well.
