How is Bitcoin’s Price Decided?
Episode description
Authorities like banks and governments determine the price of traditional fiat currencies like the US dollar or Euro. However, that is not the case with Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies for that matter. So, who determines Bitcoin’s price?
Unlike fiat currencies, no single entity fixes the Bitcoin price. Rather than a single authority, many factors play a role in deciding Bitcoin’s price. For instance, Bitcoin’s price is primarily determined by supply and demand. In other words, it depends on how much people are ready to pay for it.
The higher the demand, the higher the price, whereas the lesser the demand, the lower the price. Besides, many other factors influence the price of Bitcoin. Let’s unravel all of them and find out how Bitcoin’s price is determined.
