  • The first $1,200 stimulus check has appreciated to $10,278 if the recipient invested in Bitcoin
  • The second $600 stimulus check has appreciated to $1,227 if it also bought Bitcoin
  • The third round of stimmy checks is on its way with details of the rollout expected soon

President Biden has signed into law the third stimulus bill worth $1.9 Trillion that will see eligible Americans receive at least $1,400 from the government. As was the case with the first and second ‘stimmy checks’ from last year, chances are that some or all of the amount will end up purchasing Bitcoin and/or other digital assets.

Bitcoin Could Test $60k Once the Third Stimulus Checks Get Disbursed

At the time of writing, Bitcoin has more or less recovered from yesterday’s dip to $55k due to news of Binance being investigated by the CFTC. Bitcoin is currently trading at $57,500 and looks set to conquer the elusive $58k price area as support in the days to follow.

Additionally, between now and next week is when details of the disbursement of the $1,400 will start emerging. This means that Bitcoin could keep pushing higher towards $60k based on the hype and excitement surrounding the stimulus checks.
