Dollar's share of global reserves is dropping fast
According to Holger Zschaepitz, a market analyst at Welt, the U.S. dollar's share of global reserves is rapidly declining as countries like Russia are pursuing a de-dollarization strategy and opting for gold.
Depreciation is partly responsible, but other factors play a part in weakness.
As long as the dollar continues to wane, there is a strong probability that Bitcoin will continue to rally in April. April has been a strong month for Bitcoin over the past ten years, recording positive gains in five consecutive years since 2016.
Zschaepitz said:
"OOPS! Dollar in decline. While Dollar’s share of global reserves initially increased at start of pandemic, it has since decreased & now stands at just 59%—1.5pp decline QoQ & lowest since 1995. Part of decline due to depreciation, but also due to active USD selling."

Bitcoin tends to perform exceptionally well during April if the U.S. dollar continues to drop. Since 2016, Bitcoin has continued to gain value during April for five consecutive years.
There are a lot of chances to win big in April If it continues to consolidate above it, the chances of it seeing a strong breakout above the $60,000 resistance level greatly increases.
