Has the falling price of Bitcoin turned a corner?
The price of Bitcoin has been steady again over the past 24 hours. The Bitcoin price is up nearly three per cent this morning at just above $38k, having yesterday climbed above $38,500 for the first time in more than a week.
It’s been a bad month for Bitcoin, but we’ve ended on something of a high. Can we build on it from here in February?
The big news this morning is India’s cryptocurrency bill, which was expected today but does not appear to be in the 15 bills the government body is due to released by Parliament. Indian Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman did, however, announce a 30 per cent tax on any income from the transfer of virtual digital assets.
There’s been a price jump across the board, with Ethereum (ETH) up almost eight per cent to more than $2,700. Solana (SOL) and Terra (LUNA) have both seen price gains in double figures this morning.
