As Bloomberg predicts Bitcoin to hit $20,000 in 2020, the catalysts that could make it happen are already maturing.<\/p>\n
The European Central Bank (ECB) on Thursday announced<\/a> that it would boost its bond-buying stimulus program until June 2021. President\u00a0Christine Lagarde said during a press brief that the ECB would buy another \u20ac600 billion of bonds to aid the European economy.<\/p>\n The unprecedented quantitative easing program expects to add a record\u00a0\u20ac1.35 trillion ($1.53 trillion) worth of burden on the ECB’s balance sheet. The move would increase the bank’s asset portfolio to \u20ac4 trillion ($4.53 trillion),\u00a0which, at present, amounts to a third of eurozone’s gross domestic product.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, macro analysts predicted that ECB could extend its stimulus program beyond June 2021.<\/p>\n \u201cWith inflation forecast clearly below 2% in 2022, more monetary stimulus further down the road should not be excluded,\u201d Carsten Brzeski, the chief economist at ING Germany, told CNBC<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Marco Valli, the head of macro research at UniCredit, also reiterated the same outcome, stating that ECB’s emergency purchases have no end in sight.<\/p>\n As ECB perpetually boosts the supply of euros across the eurozone, assets such as bitcoin and gold should go a lot of higher.<\/p>\n Ultimately, the trillions of euros created by the ECB will go through the real economy, which will likely cause inflation, loss of purchasing power, and even a plunge in confidence. Unlimited QE’s do not go unnoticed \u2013 as it pushes investors into higher-yielding assets such as stocks or bitcoin.<\/p>\n The Fed’s bond-purchasing program has brought out a similar outcome<\/a>. As the U.S. central bank announced that it would inject $3 trillion into the banking system, riskier assets, including bitcoin, stocks, and Gold, rose in sync. Nevertheless, bitcoin outranked them by returning the best year-to-date yields.<\/p>\nBitcoin Meets QE is Bullish<\/h2>\n
