The U.S. dollar experienced an 11% decline in value relative to other currencies in the first half of 2025, marking its worst performance in decades. This drop is attributed to persistent inflation, tariff uncertainties, and geopolitical issues affecting global markets.
Bitcoin has risen nearly 20% year-to-date, presenting opportunities for investment in cryptocurrency companies like Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN), Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD), and Bitfarms Ltd. (NASDAQ: BITF). Coinbase reported $1.5 billion in revenue for the latest quarter, falling short of analyst expectations of $1.7 billion. Robinhood saw a 45% increase in revenue year-over-year. Bitfarms added 12,000 mining rigs, producing nearly $8 million in monthly free cash flow, leading to a stock price increase of over 60% year-to-date.
