Bitcoin Comes to the Oil Market


bitcoinWhile the US dollar has long since been the preferred currency in the crude oil market those days may be coming to an end with a new Bitcoin crude oil market making its appearance. After strengthening its positions as a payment method in some of the best online casinos now bitcoin aims at the oil market. Many oil-producing nations still price their oil in US currency but the likes of Iran and Russia are making it clear that they intend to move away from that form of pricing. Iran has indicated strongly that it wants paid for its oil in Euros, and Russia’s President Putin has been strongly advocating that his country too should stop pricing its oil in US currency. This has put a strain on what is commonly referred to as the ‘petrodollar’ and may be heralding the beginning of its demise. Certainly the uneasy relationship between the leading oil-producing nation Saudi Arabia and the United States has only made things more unsettling for the future of the petrodollar.

For decades the United States and Saudi Arabia have had a mutually beneficial arrangement whereby the United States provides protection for the House of Saud and in return Saudi Arabia oil producers only use US currency to price their crude oil. With the currencies of Saudi Arabia and several other countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) being fixed to the US dollar it has caused the US currency to be the world’s choice of reserve currency, but now that Saudi Arabia and the US’s relationship is becoming increasingly tense both parties may be reconsidering their previous agreement. The rift between the two countries can be at least partially attributed to the recent passing of the Justice against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA) bill in the Senate in 2016. The bill allows for family members of victims killed as a result of 9/11 terrorist attacks to sue Saudi officials if they are found to have been involved. []
