“This year we are really optimistic about crypto and bitcoin. We think that due to the upcoming halving, growth will increase this year. ”
Recall that relative to the local minimum, bitcoin has already risen in price by 30%.
The main factor that can push through bitcoinabove the 2019 high, is the BTC halving expected in May 2020. Subsequently, a twofold reduction in the remuneration for mining Bitcoin blocks will be implemented, which will provoke a sharp increase in the price. Also, the price of the first cryptocurrency can be affected by the 2020 presidential election.
