Bitcoin briefly reclaims $62,000
Between Thursday and early hours of Friday, the world’s leading cryptocurrency made a 9% leap upward, reaching the $62,440 price level. This way, Bitcoin also demonstrated a roughly 25% rise over the past few days.
That price surge was driven by a number of factors, which included an important victory of Ripple and XRP in court over the SEC. As the Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated, that win was important not only for the company and XRP but for the global cryptocurrency space too.
Today, however, Bitcoin made a 3.3% setback, falling back into the $60,360 zone.
Michael Saylor reacted to the Bitcoin brief surge above $62,000 by posting a Bitcoin-themed image and tweeting: “Solve the Puzzle with ₿itcoin.”
