Highlights

  • Bitcoin’s price dropped slightly overnight, falling by around one percent in the past 24 hours.

Bitcoin’s price dropped slightly overnight, falling by around one percent in the past 24 hours.

The slight drop hasn’t soured what’s been a very positive couple of weeks for the world’s largest crypto.

Bitcoin has soared around US$10,000 since the beginning of February, helping turn around the token’s fortunes which had seen it slide for the past few months.

On November 11, Bitcoin reached a record high of US$68,500 after a steady rise which began in August.

However, after hitting its all-time high, Bitcoin began a steady decline which saw it lose over 40% of its value by the end of January.

The coin’s resurgence since the beginning of February has many analysts suggesting this signifies the end of crypto’s declining market cycle.

Bitcoin is currently priced at US$43,200
