Bitcoin to US dollar - Recent Trend
BTC - USD - Forecasts & News
Last week saw the US Dollar slowly but surely grind its way higher against all its Rivals. USD Forecasts
After recovering from rates closer to $US3,000 earlier in 2019 to just shy of $US11,000 in late June Bitcoin (and other cryptos) have dropped steadily reaching a nadir of below $US8000 in late September. This is quite different to the first half of the year when bitcoin gained value in 15 weeks from 18.
Cryptocurrency experts suggested in June that the imminent arrival of Facebook’s own coin, Libra, added legitimacy to the crypto space, thereby assisting widespread acceptance and adoption of cryptos as payment vehicles and boosting market sentiment.
Rather than disappear, as some prominent financial experts had predicted, Libra’s arrival confirmed that “[bitcoin] will remain an ever-important asset that hundreds of millions of people will hold,” one analyst said, before adding: “You can bet bitcoin is going to break 15k!”

Will the Bitcoin rise against the US dollar?
