Bitcoin hits new all-time high as price reaches $68,000.
Bitcoin price has hit a record high of $68,000 on Coinbase.
Bitcoin's market capitalization outpaced the meta-platforms, rising to $1.32 trillion compared to $1.27 trillion.
Bitcoin's impressive rally over the past few days saw another big surge today. After retreating to a low of $61k last week, Bitcoin price rose more than 7% in 24 hours to hit a high of $68,000 on crypto exchange Coinbase on Monday.
The increase pushed BTC to more than $4,100, the major cryptocurrency's all-time high in 2021. During that bull cycle, the price of Bitcoin rose to $69,044. In today's performance, Bitcoin is less than 2% from that peak.
With the disappointment of spot Bitcoin ETFs and the supply shock due to the upcoming halving, analysts are saying that BTC still has a lot of room to grow. ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said last week's trading volume was “more of a new normal than a coincidence.”
The Ten Bitcoin ETF is a virtual lock to record the second largest volume today. So last week's big upheaval in business activity seems more like the new normal than the anomaly. pic.twitter.com/dOfIQ7hhS2
