As Cointelegraph reported
at the time, one June 22 BTC crossed the $11,000 line in under 24 hours
after breaking $10,000. Earlier this week professional trader Peter
Brandt also tweeted that bitcoin’s price is currently taking aim at
$100,000 target. According to him, bitcoin is currently on its fourth
parabolic growth phase, and “is a market like no other.”
The founder and CEO of Digital Currency Group argued
earlier this month that it “looks like, perhaps, we are coming out of a
crypto winter and we’ve entered a crypto spring,” in an interview with
Bloomberg.
Also on June 22, Ethereum (ETH) hit its 10 months high after on June 21 news broke that Grayscale’s Ethereum-based security, Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE), is now available for trading on OTC Markets.
