Bitcoin Bull Case Advances As BTC Nears ATH, Dollar Index Plunges To 3-Year Low

The bull case for Bitcoin is gaining momentum as the leading crypto nears its all-time high (ATH) and the US dollar index plunges to its lower level in three years.

Analyst Says “Fiat Is Fading” As US Dollar Index Plunges

Meanwhile, the US dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of other major fiat currencies, has slid to its lowest level since February 2022 to reach 97.27 earlier today, according to TradingView data. 

That’s amid Donald Trump’s calls for the US Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, as well as disappointing data on housing and consumer confidence. 

“The dollar index is dabbling in new cycle lows today,” said macroeconomist Lyn Alden in a June 25 X post. “Barely got any flight-to-safety bid in the past couple weeks, either.” 

Real Vision analyst Jamie Coutts echoed a similar sentiment on X. 

“If you remember 2002–2008, the last major dollar depreciation lit a fire under EM equities and commodities,” Coutts said. “Crypto is today’s EM. Capital is moving where the energy is. Fiat is fading.”

Bitcoin ETF Inflow Streak Strengthens BTC Bull Case

US spot Bitcoin ETFs (exchange-traded funds) are adding to BTC’s bull case. Data from Farside Investors shows the funds pushed their net daily inflows streak to 12 days yesterday. During this period, a total of $3.9 billion flowed into these investment products as well. 

BlackRock’s IBIT continued to lead the charge, with another $340.3 million entering its reserves yesterday. This has boosted the fund’s cumulative net inflows to $51.992 billion.

Congressman Grills SEC Representative on Crypto Regulation and Clarity

Congressman Tom Emmer criticized the SEC’s lack of clarity on crypto regulation. SEC’s representative failed to answer affirmatively whether the agency has issued any guidance on how security laws apply to crypto. The Congressman accused the agency of deliberately obfuscating the regulatory issue. In a recent congressional hearing, U.S. Congressman Tom Emmer engaged in a heated exchange with Valerie Szczepanik, the Head of the Strategic Hub for Innovation and Financial Technology at the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  The interrogation focused on the SEC’s approach to crypto regulation and the level of clarity provided to the market about how crypto assets can be deemed securities. If it wasn't obvious before, it's certainly obvious now: The SEC has a deliberate policy preference to provide LESS clarity to the marketplace instead of more clarity. Complete disservice to our great capital markets. pic.twitter.com/iNuOJYKj...
