Bitcoin
The rise in BTC’s price could be a result of the expected rate cut factor, alleviating market concerns.
The main reason for the rise in cryptocurrency prices is the certainty of the Fed’s rate cut. The probability of a rate cut by the Fed in September is 98%.
The rise in Bitcoin’s price comes after a period of pressure. Earlier this month, it fell to a low of around $54,000. Although Bitcoin is currently only up around 3% on a monthly basis, it has risen by more than 18% in the past two weeks.
