Bitcoin continues with its price discovery and it’s particularly interesting to see where it would head up next. Of course, during very volatile movements of this kind, it’s crucial to remain reasonable, execute trades with a clear strategy in mind and never chase moves based on FOMO. The market will always present opportunities and preserving capital should be a number one priority.

Over $2,000 Added in 24 Hours

With all of the above comes another positive consequence. Bitcoin has managed to add upwards of $2,000 in the past 24 hours alone.

At present, the daily candle has a low of around $19,227, having peaked at $21,464. This was outlined by the Co-Founder and CEO of Blockstream and well-known Bitcoin proponent, Adam Back.

The rest of the market is also well in green with Ethereum charting a 7.6% daily increase and trading well over $630. Ripple’s XRP is also on the rise after having slowed down for the past few days. The cryptocurrency now stands at around $0.535, charting 12.9% gains on the daily.
