Large investors buy Bitcoin

According to experts, there are several reasons for the new all -time high. On the one hand, more and more institutional investors are investing their money in Bitcoin – even if some early investors will check out and separate from Bitcoin stocks. The Bitcoin course course is also powered by expectations that the US Central Bank will continue to reduce interest rates in the United States. The calculation is that investors at low interest rates for classic systems are more willing to take a higher risk and invest in Bitcoin.

Gold and digital gold

Alternative investments such as Bitcoin – but also classic value memory such as gold – also benefit from the political uncertainties in the USA, which have arisen, among other things, by the budget lock. Some analysts also establish the Bitcoin rally with a historical chart analysis: For over a decade, October has been one of the strongest months in the Bitcoin year of Bit. In the period since 2013, the course in the course of October has only fallen in two years (2014 and 2018), which is why Bitcoin fans also speak of the “Uptober”.

According to the recent price increase of the provider Coinmarketcap, the market capitalization of Bitcoin is around $ 2.5 trillion. The Bitcoin continues to dominate the market of digital currencies. This currently has a total value of almost $ 4.3 trillion.
