BTC price prediction: how will the Russia and Ukraine conflict impact its value?

There have been numerous developments surrounding the Bitcoin BTC/USD cryptocurrency token as of lately. 

Due to the fact that it is one of the largest tokens in terms of market capitalization, it is expected to have a lot of value swings during real-world developments. 

In fact, Bitcoin fell as low as $34,337 after Vladimir Putin’s push towards demilitarizing Ukraine started with a barrage of missile attacks on Thursday. 

However, there have been other developments within Bitcoin’s sphere, specifically, acceptance in Mexico.

Mexico proposed bill for Bitcoin as a catalyst for growth

On February 24, we covered how Kazakhstan shut down 13 crypto mining firms for illegal operations.

Another country besides El Salvador is prepared to accept Bitcoin as a means of payment.

Specifically, Senator Indira Kempis is in the process of developing a bill on cryptocurrencies which has the main goal of convincing the Mexican government to follow what is known as the “Salvadorian scenario” by recognizing BTC as a means of payment.
