The US dollar has reached its strongest levels in years, driven by optimism surrounding Donald Trump’s re-election and Federal Reserve rate cuts. Historically, a strong dollar challenges risk assets like Bitcoin, which has already corrected by 15%. Bitcoin analyst Joe Consorti notes that a similar dollar rally previously caused a 25% BTC drop, suggesting caution. However, optimism remains high due to Trump’s crypto-friendly stance. Industry leaders, including CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, believe his administration could reduce regulatory risks and boost institutional interest, potentially driving Bitcoin adoption despite dollar strength.
