📌 Opinion: Asian markets raise Bitcoin up
Specialists note that the ongoing Bitcoin rally is different. The main force is in the Asian economy(source)
Analysts agree that the trade confrontation between the United States and China (although this term can be largely absolutized by panic sentiments, which is not always true) will be another reason to raise Bitcoin.
Big investors from the Asian region may start to hedge the risks with the help of the cryptocurrency, thus creating an environment of additional interest for large financiers. This movement will affect all market participants, according to that.
“However, what caused the sudden unexplained spike is now clear to me. It is [the] Chinese devaluation, the insider reaction to imminent, planned, significant and perhaps rolling Chinese currency devaluation that set off this rally.“
Quote: Clem Chambers, ADVFN CEO
In turn, Chambers believes that Bitcoin will become an analogue of gold, in this situation. In fact, the digital currency can play both a short and a longer role in this process. Returning to today's events, BTC and alts are being in the red zone, returning previously gained volumes.

📌 BitMEX is moving forward: 1 Million XBT in 24 hours and first EFP exchange
The world's first futures-to-Bitcoins exchanging and trading records: BitMEX updates (source)
Earlier, the BitMEX crypto-exchange has recorded a trading volume of almost 1 million XBT (equivalent to $8 billion) over the past 24 hours. Against the background of the general volatile market sentiment, the company said that this is a record for the industry, for which it thanks its users.
As you remember, Arthur Hayes, co-founder and chief executive of BitMEX, suggested earlier that, despite the increase in market volatility this summer, BTC's price will reach $50,000 near the end of 2018.
