In Venezuela, the parallel dollar price in P2P format registered a significant drop in the last few hours, falling from 630 VES to 505 VES, marking an important change in the dynamics of the foreign exchange market.
The fall in the parallel dollar price responds to a historic intervention by the Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV), which injected a record volume of U.S. dollars into the national banking system. This measure is part of a deliberate strategy to push for the unification of exchange rates and reduce speculation in the parallel market.
USDT has been particularly affected by this pressure, showing an adjustment move towards the official exchange rate. Market observers highlight that the gap between the parallel dollar price and the official rate is gradually closing, altering the speculative incentives that have historically kept these currencies at high levels.
As a result of this intervention, the (VES) bolivar and the physical currency are strengthening relatively compared to digital assets traded on P2P. The parallel market is in a period of adjustment, reflecting the new monetary reality imposed by the actions of the BCV.
Analysts point out that this central bank strategy could transform the dynamics in the short term, although doubts remain about its sustainability in the medium term in a context of continued macroeconomic volatility.
