Bitcoin price exceeds $17 thousand

The last time it happened two and a half years ago. Bitcoin accounts for almost two-thirds of the global cryptocurrency market.

The Bitcoin exchange rate exceeded the mark of $17 thousand. This is stated on the website CoinDesk.

Bitcoin exceeded the mark of $17 thousand for the first time in more than two and a half years - the last time the cryptocurrency exceeded the mark in January 2018.

Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin has grown in price during trading by more than 3.5%.

Bitcoin accounts for just over 65% of the total global cryptocurrency market. The course continues to show positive dynamics against the background of the expectations of market participants following the results of the presidential elections in the United States.

The Bitcoin concept was presented to the public in November 2008 by Satoshi Nakamoto, but the peak in popularity and growth has occurred in the last few years.

Today, legislation in the field of crypto assets is beginning to develop in Russia.
