Rise in Bitcoin and Optimism in Crypto Markets#BTC
Bitcoin‘s price is at $43,123 at the time the article was prepared, showing signs of breaking away from the negativity at the start of the week.

It’s important that the daily close is above $43,000 for BTC in about 1.5 hours. Investors may be facing sleepless nights and potentially the beginning of new bull markets.
