BTC se zaustavio na 24 hiljade dolara
After ending July in the green, the first positive month since February, bitcoin started to retrace slightly and dropped from $24,000 to under $22,500 in a matter of days.
The aforementioned low came on August 4, but the asset bounced off rather quickly and returned to $23,000. It calmed there and spent the next few days around that level without any significant moves in either direction.
After the relatively dull weekend, BTC finally went on the offensive and skočio to a daily high of $24,250 (on Bitstamp).
It was stopped there, and the bears have pushed it down to just under $24,000 as of now. Nevertheless, its market cap still stands north of $450 billion.
