Bitcoin bounced over $20,000 for the first time in two months this weekend. In fact, it went on to jump the $21,000 hurdle as the entire crypto market flew over the $1 trillion mark again. Former Securities and Exchange Commission official John Reed Stark says it was due to market manipulation. He’s not wrong. After all, the surge led to $500 million in liquidations, the highest since October. Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) seized the moment to troll Jim Cramer on Twitter, who had previously warned investors to take their money out of bitcoin. In other news, Bitcoin’s mining difficulty hit another all-time high. The sudden rise in the market looks like a quick pump to boost some investors’ earnings at the beginning of the year. It could have been a test to see if certain whales can trust pushing the market higher and could spell a coming bull market in the near future. https://read.cash/@cryptocracy/bitcoin-surged-to-21k-over-the-weekend-while-eth-hit-10-week-high-b5e3d2c4
