Bitcoin prices have been buoyed this year as investors bet that trillions of dollars of government and central bank spending around the world in response to the coronavirus-induced slowdown will inevitably result in inflation, and therefore be positive for the cryptocurrency.

If a stimulus deal is reached, BTC may rise further.

In recent trading, BTC was up 1.3% to $11,059.
