The Bitcoin gave in again at the start of the week, moving away from his record high reached last Thursday.
On Monday afternoon, the oldest and best -known digital currency at CoinmarketCap cost around $ 115,700 and thus significantly less than in the end of last week. On Thursday, the Bitcoin first climbed over the $ 124,000 mark and rose to $ 124,517 before going down again bit by bit.
Strong fluctuations are not unusual for Bitcoin. The Bitcoin is on the upper and long term. Since the election of Donald Trump, who is considered a sponsor of digital currencies, the new US president last November has increased the course by more than 70 percent. In autumn 2022, the Bitcoin still cost around $ 15,000 – since then the Bitcoin has almost spoken. Ten years ago, the course was only a little more than $ 200.
