Bitcoin price shows signs of recovery as major cryptocurrencies push to the upside

By: Crypto AM Daily with James Bowater | Crypto Insider

price of Bitcoin

The prices of major cryptocurrencies continue to climb this week, in line with global stock markets, which have also shown signs of recovery.

The price of Bitcoin is up another six per cent over the past 24 hours, changing hands for more than $21k this morning.

Ethereum has also seen signs of life, up another five percent since yesterday morning to around $1,165.

There’s double digit gains for the likes of Solana and Chainlink. Has downward momentum been arrested for the time being?

Would you like to help spread the adoption and education of Bitcoin in the UK and even stack some Sats while you’re doing it? Well, now you can!

The Bitcoin Pioneers community, backed by Barry Silbert’s Digital Currency Group, was created to introduce Bitcoin to a mainstream audience in a meaningful way and now has members right across the UK.

We share tips, stories and ideas on how to encourage others to try Bitcoin for the first time. And, thanks to support from Luno, each Pioneer gets £500 of Bitcoin a month to share with beginners, helping them get started.

Convince your Nan: Soundbite of the day

“Models come and go.

Narratives come and go.

What doesn’t change is:

– 21m

– Censorship resistance

– Unforgeable costliness

– Decentralisation

– Self-custody

– Immutability

– Fast and global peer-to-peer payments

– Scaling through lightning 

– Global liquidity”
