“Bitcoin traded above the US$22,000 level, gaining 5 per cent over the previous day. If the price can fix at that level, we may see a further upward move. However, on the other side, Ethereum outperformed the crypto market. This peak comes following Ethereum’s six consecutive days of higher highs taking the price above the US$1,500 level showing great strength and recovery of the asset. If bulls can sustain the momentum, Ethereum could reach the US$2,000 mark very soon. If not, we can expect a retracement,” said Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of global Crypto investing platform Mudrex.
