The BTC/USD pair was trading at 59,700 on Monday morning, much higher than this month’s low of 52,510.Bitcoin’s price action happened as investors focused on the ongoing easing of monetary policy by global central bank. The European Central Bank (ECB) slashed interest rates for the second time last week. Analysts expect more central banks to cut rates this week. The Federal Reserve is expected to deliver its first interest rate cut since 2020 on Wednesday. This explains why US government bonds have jumped, pushing their yields to their lowest levels in months.Gold also jumped to a record high while American stock indices like the Russell 2000, Dow Jones, and the Nasdaq 100 are nearing their highest levels on record. Historically, risky assets like Bitcoin do well when central banks have a dovish tone.The other catalyst for Bitcoin is that the amount of coins in exchanges has continued to fall in the past few months. It now stands at the lowest level in years, meaning that many investors have stored their coins and not selling.Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin ETFs had the first week of inflows, meaning that some bullish investors still exist. One of the most notable bulls is MicroStrategy, which continued its acquisition spree, buying coins worth over $1 billion recently.BTC/USD technical analysisBitcoin price bottomed at $52,510 on September 6, and has been in an uptrend since then.
