Geopolitical Factors Affect The Bitcoin Market Value
Bitcoin is often considered an independent digital asset, there are certain geopolitical factors that decided the Bitcoin market value and its demand. For instance, the most successful stablecoin in the market Tether contributes to a large amount of daily Bitcoin volume. Mostly Chinese investors use Tether to buy Bitcoin, due to many restrictions.
