ZAR overview

In the Bitcoin to Rand pair, BTC is the base currency and the ZAR is the counter currency, which means the BTC/ZAR chart shows how much one Bitcoin is worth as measured against the African rand.

The South African rand is unofficially regarded as the most important currency on the African continent. Even with this unofficial status the ZAR is considered a highly volatile currency in global terms.

As South Africa is a commodity and export-based economy, the value of the Rand is linked to global prices and is disproportionately affected by global economic risk perceptions. The Bitcoin to rand exchange rate forecast is also innately linked to global trade and economic sentiment as the bulk of the South African economy is based on exports.

Those interested in the BTC/ZAR pair trading should keep a close watch of crypto market news and the South African Reserve bank releases regarding interest rates and monetary policy changes.
