Bitcoin continues to regroup

Posted online

The cryptocurrency Bitcoin continues to rebound, hitting a three-month high of $50,000 Sunday.

The cryptocurrency’s value had hit an all-time high of more than $64,000 in April, but then sold off in June and July, when it fell below $30,000, in part because of scrutiny from Chinese authorities. Bitcoin has been rising steadily since mid-July, however.

Two developments last week boosted Bitcoin’s value. Coinbase stated it would buy $500 million crypto and allocate 10% of its profits to a crypto assets portfolio, and PayPal announced its intention to launch a platform for cryptocurrency exchange in the U.K.

The value of the entire cryptocurrency market was over $2.16 trillion Sunday, according to Coinmarketcap.

Bitcoin was trading at $50,263 at 6:20 a.m. ET Monday, according to CoinDesk.
