An expected record hike in the price of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin
The price of the cryptocurrency "Bitcoin" digital currency approached new highs. Where it rose by 7% to reach 40,920 dollars on the trading platform "Bitstamp".
The value of Bitcoin has risen nearly 21% this week, an increase due in part to the support of Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk.
Bitcoin witnessed a stunning rise last year, reaching $ 42,000 in early 2021. It retreated slightly and then rose again at the end of January, according to media.
And expectations indicate that investors have shed any concerns about tighter and tightening regulation. More recently, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen spoke in favor of close oversight of digital currencies.
