The leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin has been affected by macroeconomic developments lately. Investors have one eye on the US Federal Reserve (FED) statements. Yesterday evening, the FED presented a semi-annual monetary policy report. The Fed says inflation is uncomfortably high, and additional rate hikes are needed to contain inflation. Although the consumer price index is on a downward trend, it is three times higher than the pre-pandemic average. Officials voted to raise the interest rate by a quarter point from 4.50% to 4.75% in February. This vote is the most significant proof that several rate hikes are on the table this year.
Bitcoin, which started the day at $ 23465 with a hard sell yesterday, closed at $ 22354 with a loss of 4.73%, although it regressed to $ 21971.
Bitcoin, which started today at $ 22354, is trading at $ 22345 with a decrease of 0.04% at the time of writing.
