As could be expected at some point, bitcoin, which has skyrocketed in the past, has today fallen to its lowest level in 10 days, according to the latest data.
This happened due to the sale, which spread to other smaller digital coins. The value of bitcoin dropped by as much as 13 percent, to 16,317 dollars, and a maximum of 19,521 dollars was recorded on Wednesday.
This alternative currency is currently trading down 8.0 percent.
By the way, bitcoin, which many claim to be the currency of the future, strengthened by about 150 percent this year, and thus reached a level that is slightly below its all-time record, which is 19,666 dollars.
The growth of the world's most famous cryptocurrency has been stimulated by the demand for riskier assets, but those that are considered resistant to inflation. There are, of course, expectations that digital money will soon be widely accepted as a means of payment.
The twelve-year history of bitcoin is "spiced" with dizzying ups and downs.
This current decline is explained by traders through the efforts of investors to use the record value of bitcoin and make a profit from investing, and one of the reasons is the tweet of the general director of the large cryptocurrency exchange "Coinbase", Brian Armstrong, in which he expresses concern over the introduction of strict rules. this area.
Bitcoin today took with it smaller cryptocurrencies, and the second largest - ethereum, fell by about 13 percent. XRP fell by as much as 20 percent.
I hope it comes back and exceeds the price of over 20,000 dollars. There were jumps on several occasions last year, but as far as I remember, it went over $ 15,000
