The US-China trade war pushes Chinese investors toward Bitcoin
With the fall of the Chinese yuan as the US-China trade war continues, there are signs that Chinese investors are increasingly moving funds into Bitcoin.
According to a price analysis done by Bloomberg, the negative correlation between yuan and bitcoin has dropped to a record level in the last seven days.
The fall in the value of the yuan has prompted Chinese investors to invest in cryptocurrencies, according to exchange data. Dr. Garrick Hileman, research director at Blockchain.com, said that on exchanges like Huobi, which deals more with Chinese traders, Bitcoin is traded at a premium.
The inverse correlation between bitcoin and yuan was also noted in April and May
“Because there has been a deterioration in US-China trade relations,”
Hileman said.
