This week, Bitcoin recovered to its previous position of over $50,000 for the first time since the beginning of September. It happened after a market-wide resurgence.
On Wednesday, the crypto reached over $55,000 and remained around this number. This time it was the latest price accumulations after the asset`s value fell below $30,000 at the end of July.
Other leading cryptocurrencies have followed bitcoin’s path in recent weeks, with Binance Coin, Ethereum, and dogecoin increasing by 15 to 30 percent. The overall crypto market is now at nearly $2.3 trillion, which has increased more than 15 percent since October.
After a weak September, some critics are predicting a solid end for crypto in 2021. There are some signs that one price prediction model, which showed that it was accurate in August and September, places bitcoin on a mark to reach six figures before this Christmas.
