Investors are focusing on Bitcoin's price due to monetary stimulus in China and Europe. The US Federal Reserve is under pressure to cut rates as the US dollar weakens. Bitcoin's decoupling from traditional markets is gaining attention, with its price jumping to $85,000 despite the S&P 500 index dropping 5.7% in April. Multiple events and data points suggest further gains above $90,000. Central banks are responding to the threat of an economic recession, increasing the chances of an increase in monetary supply. China's new bank loans in March rebounded more than expected, and the European Central Bank cut interest rates to support the eurozone economy. The weakening US dollar is adding pressure on the US Federal Reserve to end its restrictive monetary policy. Investor confidence has been hurt by US President Donald Trump's public criticism of Fed Chair Jerome Powell's administration. Despite this, Bitcoin miners have shown a strong long-term commitment, with the hashrate increasing by 8% compared to the previous month. The increase in hashrate suggests that miners are not likely to sell off their Bitcoin holdings, which could support the cryptocurrency's price.
