Forexlive reports a significant milestone in the cryptocurrency market as Bitcoin surges to an impressive $82K. This development persists despite the recent downturn in the US market.
In the Forexlive Americas FX news wrap, mention was made of the fresh tariff threat by Trump, which sent the markets into a downward spiral. Despite the overall market dip, Bitcoin has proven resilient. Currencies like EUR, AUD, NZD, and BP softened in response to the market conditions, but Bitcoin continued its rise, hitting the $82K mark.
Earlier in the week, there was speculation that Bitcoin could drop into the low 80K region. With the new price record, it appears the forecast was accurate. The catalyst for a bounce back in the market is still unclear. However, the crypto world may be in for another surprise, unless there’s another unexpected comment from Trump.
