When people talk about Bitcoin price, they usually refer to its price expressed in dollars. I really don't understand why...
US Dollar is going down in price, US economy is collapsing. There are many other countries which has more Bitcoin users, like Russia, China, Japan, Philippines and the whole Eurozone. Even ICOs are forbidden in the USA. It's not a so Bitcoin-friendly country, its national currency is not so strong. So why price Bitcoin in $?
There could be many other more appropriate currencies like EUR, CNY or RUB...
All about the currency is talking about usd because we know it is accepted everywhere.
So thats why it compared to usd. Finally also we need to convert to fiat to make any of purchase offline.
