Bitcoin Tests $80,000 Amid Inflation Data and Fed Commentary
Bitcoin's price has been steadily increasing, reaching $77,364 on Monday after gaining 22.1% across seven days.
The cryptocurrency's momentum slowed down as it approached $80,000 before its recent surge.
This week is crucial for Bitcoin as three U.S. events could influence Treasury yields, the dollar, and demand for risk assets: July inflation data, revised economic growth, and Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's Jackson Hole address.
