The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) has been trading below its four-month trend line, which is why the U.S. Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates in the next few months.
While lower interest rates will help strengthen the dollar, a weaker dollar could boost exports from the U.S. and improve domestic profits. Both scenarios could be beneficial to Bitcoin, the Malta-based exchange said.
