Turkish Lira Vs BTC: What’s Behind The Bitcoin Chart You Can’t Miss

Bitcoin price quoted in United States dollars has been suffering from a sharp and sudden downtrend after setting a new all-time high in November. But when quoted in Turkish lira, the top cryptocurrency kept on climbing in November and has never looked back.

The result? A shocking cryptocurrency price chart you simply have to see to believe. We’ll also explain the background behind the devastating downtrend in TRYUSD.

BTCTRY: Bitcoin Makes A Bullish Bet Against Struggling Currencies

All throughout the history of Bitcoin price action, after setting a higher high, the notoriously volatile cryptocurrency would blast off to a cycle climax. But the recent macro concerns around the Federal Reserve’s plans to raise rates put any bullish momentum on pause.

Instead of new highs in BTCUSD, the top crypto asset by market cap has fallen by 38% or around $20,000 per coin. However, crypto assets don’t only trade against the dollar, much like BTC can trade against altcoins like ETH.

Bitcoin can be quoted in the euro, yen, or in the case of the chart above, the Turkish lira. On the BTCTRY trading pair, after the all-time high was breached in early November, the bullish trend has yet to take a breather – let alone the steep correction seen in USD terms.

Behind The Turkish Lira Plunge, An Omen For The Dollar?

The flight to the dollar caused by the mere mention of rate hikes has decimated assets. In Turkey, the opposite is happening. Under president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey’s central bank has cut interest rates by a full percentage point five times since September, sending the nation’s currency into a free fall.

During this time frame, the lira has fallen 50% against the dollar. Inflation in the country has also increased by 21%. Central banks in Turkey have attempted to intervene several times without success, selling off the country’s reserve of USD.

In response to inflation concerns, Erdoğan has raised the minimum wage by 50%, which Marek Drimal at Société Générale claims “will fuel inflation pressures further, together with the cumulative impact of the lira’s weakness”.

Additional, unspecified measures are also promised. But will they work? The lira is an example of what happens when there are no more levers left to pull. The United States Federal Reserve has a lot more shock and awe left in its war chest, but even it is struggling to balance markets, inflation, and a currency meltdown.

I'm Tony Spilotro. Behind the pseudonym, I'm a global remote work leader with a decade of award-winning content experience and excellence. Here, I explore my newfound passions pertaining to privacy, finance, economics, politics, cryptography, property rights, and other libertarian-esque views. I am a Bitcoin evangelist, maximalist, and educator whenever I can be, helping to spread its message of freedom from government control, monetary policy mismanagement, and passing the buck - literally – to future generations. My journey from a curious retail crypto investor to a serious Bitcoin advocate, trader, and technical analyst is an unusual one, but life-changing nonetheless and has become less about money and more about a long-overdue revolution. While a firm believer in the laws governing math and science, I am profoundly fascinated by the impact of astrology and astronomy including moon and solar cycles and planetary alignment and their ability to influence and potentially predict markets. It hasn't yet clicked for me as to how to put anything to use, but I consider it my current rabbit hole I can't yet dig out of. My perspective of growing up alongside the internet, the dot com era, the Great Recession, and roots in video games collecting coins and rare items caused Bitcoin to immediately make sense to me. Through all of these lenses, I seek to produce content that is educational and entertaining, and I thank you sincerely for taking the time to read what I have to say.
