Bitcoin’s price has risen slightly since Friday despite going through a series of dips and valleys. Bitcoin was valued at nearly US$46,000 this morning, after sinking as low as US$44,500 on Saturday.
Despite this, Bitcoin is enjoying its highest value in months, following a steady decline which saw its price sink to as low as around US$33,500.
Bitcoin’s price increase is curious considering the outside factors that analysts had previously pointed towards for Bitcoin’s decline – the Russia-Ukraine war, rising inflation and anticipation of rising interest rates – are still there.
The only thing that has changed really is Biden’s infrastructure bill, which he signed in January. The bill, which was expected to clamp down on crypto regulation, was much more mild on the crypto space than originally predicted, which may also be a factor which has seen Bitcoin and the wider crypto market gain value of the past couple of weeks.
Ethereum Price
Ethereum’s price has also climbed in the past 24 hours, jumping 2%. The second-largest cryptocurrency is now valued at nearly US$3,500, after sinking as low as $3,2000 on Friday.
