Bitcoin Rallies, on Hopes of Renewed Interest , Among Mainstream Investors.
On March 4, the price of Bitcoin broke $65,000,
bringing it closer to returning to an all-time
high reached in November 2021.
NBC reports that the latest rally has been driven
by hopes that the launch of bitcoin exchange-
traded funds will expand bitcoin's pool of buyers. .
In 2024, the cryptocurrency has
gained over 48%, rapidly approaching its
record intra-day all-time high of over $68,000.
In January, Bitcoin ETFs were first approved by
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). .
The SEC said the approval of the ETFs were meant
to make it easier for investors to gain exposure to
Bitcoin without having to actually own the digital coins.
NBC reports that the world of crypto is also banking
on a potential rally following a technical event
known as "halving" scheduled to occur in April.
This event will see the rate of supply for new bitcoin
to decline, which could cause the value of the
cryptocurrency to increase if demand remains unchanged.
Some mainstream investment experts have
still urged caution when it comes to investing
in the controversial cryptocurrency.
With equities, you own a share
of a company that produces goods
or services, and many also pay
dividends. With bonds, you get
a stream of interest payments, Vanguard statement, via NBC.
Commodities are real assets that meet
consumption needs, have inflation-
hedging properties, and can play
a role in certain portfolios, Vanguard statement, via NBC.
While crypto has been classified
as a commodity, it’s an immature
asset class that has little history,
no inherent economic value,
no cash flow, and can create
havoc within a portfolio, Vanguard statement, via NBC

The Bank of England has voted to keep interest rates unchanged, but showed what was perhaps the clearest sign in years that cuts could come in the months ahead. Bank governor Andrew Bailey said the economy is “not yet at the point” where rates can be lowered, but things are “moving in the right direction”. For the first time since September 2021, no-one on the nine-person decision-making body that sets interest rates voted for an increase.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announces UK inflation fell to the lowest level in more than two years, to 3.4%. He would not be drawn on whether the fall would allow him to announce pre-election tax cuts in an autumn statement. Mr Hunt said: “What I’m really saying is that as inflation gets closer to its target, that opens the door for the Bank of England to consider bringing down interest rates, that brings down mortgage rates, that makes a very big difference.
