Bitcoin (BTC) surprised the market with a strong move higher, reaching as high as $30,800 on some cryptocurrency exchanges. The world’s largest digital currency has found the strength to rally to these levels and recover to $29,950. Bitcoin is now finding strong resistance between $30,000 and $30,800. Breaking this level can push Bitcoin towards $32,000.
Bitcoin Hits $30,800, Its Highest Level Since Mid-April
Bitcoin continues to attract investors from around the world as the digital currency hits its highest price since mid-April 2023. This shows that there is clear interest in gaining access to the largest cryptocurrency on the market.
One of the reasons behind the latest price increase could be related to the fact that Blackrock has filed an application to offer a spot Bitcoin ETF to institutional investors. Furthermore, the halving that is expected to take place next year is already attracting users who want exposure to Bitcoin.
These are just a few of the reasons why Bitcoin has skyrocketed in recent weeks. However, let’s not forget that BTC is still 57% below its all-time high recorded in November 2021. Since then, Bitcoin has been in a downtrend that now appears to be reversing.
At the end of 2022, Bitcoin reached its lowest price in years. The digital currency dipped below $16,000 for a few days allowing investors to enter the market relatively cheaply compared to what has been going on since late 2020 until now.
However, it is not clear what could happen to Bitcoin in the future. It will be important to keep an eye on the latest developments in the industry and how regulations may affect the price of the largest virtual currency on the market.
