Oanda believes Bitcoin could rise if Wednesday’s CPI data shows that U.S. inflation eased in July.
Oanda analyst Craig Erlam said that weaker inflation data may be the catalyst for Bitcoin to break through $25,000 per coin, and once again target the range of $28,000 to $32,000 per coin, the price of Bitcoin has been on the rise since early summer Never traded in this range.
