Although it is a global reference, the dollar devalues over time.
Donald Trump’s victory in the United States elections generated an upward momentum in the price of bitcoin (BTC), to the point that it nominally surpassed the all-time high (ATH) of $73,700 that it had reached in March 2024.
Although the dollar is a global reference, that does not mean that does not depreciate over time due to the monetary issue or the policies promoted by the Federal Reserve of that country (Fed).
Therefore, to get an accurate view of the real price of bitcoin, it is necessary to adjust the ATH for inflation. This allows us to see the real impact of economic movements on the value of the digital currency.
This is because the price of BTC reached $69,000 in November 2021an ATH that was displaced by the $73,700 it marked in March 2024.
However, if adjusted for inflation, the true all-time high is equal to $77,975according to the calculator Fxtop. This is because the consumer price index (CPI) in the United States increased by 13% between November 2021 and March 2024.
This calculation reflects How the depreciation of the dollar impacts the real price of digital assetsin this case BTC.
As CriptoNoticias already reported, as the first data on the presidential election in the United States became known, which showed Donald Trump as the clear winner, the price of BTC marked a new ATH in nominal terms and surpassed the barrier of $75,000.
