The cryptocurrency community was abuzz on June 5 as the price of the popular digital currency, Bitcoin (BTC), surged to a staggering $71,321.98. After experiencing significant fluctuations in recent days, this price increase marked a crucial step in Bitcoin’s recovery, bringing it closer to breaking its previous all-time high.
This resurgence in the value of the leading cryptocurrency coincided with a notable influx of funds into US-based Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Although Bitcoin’s price saw a 4% increase in the last 24 hours, it quickly retreated.
As of the latest update, Bitcoin was trading at $70,948.34, reflecting a 3.0% rise in the past day. The highest price ever paid for Bitcoin was $73,737.94, recorded three months ago on March 14. Despite the recent surge, the current price still sits 3.87% below Bitcoin’s peak value.
This uptick in Bitcoin’s performance led to a substantial increase in trading volume, with transactions totaling $37,221,726,424 within the last 24 hours. This surge in market activity signals a renewed interest in Bitcoin among investors.
Renowned cryptocurrency analyst, Ali Martinez, hinted at a potential drop in Bitcoin’s price while identifying a resistance level for a new all-time high. Martinez pointed out a sell signal on the Bitcoin hourly chart, suggesting a correction towards $68,700 or $68,050. However, breaking the $69,330 resistance level could propel Bitcoin to reach $74,400, surpassing its previous peak.
