The BTC/USD pair started the week with an explosive growth and rose above the 39000.00 mark.
Bitcoin forecast, and the BTC/USD exchange rate for today and 27 - 28 - 29 July 2021
The strengthening of the instrument's positions began last Wednesday against the background of new comments by the head of Tesla Inc. Elon Musk. He stated that since BTC mining is increasingly relying on renewable energy sources, his company may again start accepting this cryptocurrency as a means of payment. Musk also confirmed that the companies Tesla Inc. and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (SpaceX) own BTC, and the entrepreneur himself also has ETH and DOGE.
Experts explain the sharp increase in the price of Monday by the liquidation of short positions in the amount of $111 million, which occurred within just 10 minutes. The sudden strengthening of BTC positions may return interest in cryptocurrencies from short-term speculators, but the external background remains unfavorable for the digital asset market. The main threat is still the prospect of tightening monetary policy in the United States. In this case, the blow will be dealt to the entire complex of alternative assets, including cryptocurrencies.
