Bitcoin Price Watch: Currency Sinks to New Low
At press time, bitcoin has shrunk down to $6,100 – the lowest it’s been in nearly four months. All the talk of bitcoin developing newfound resistance appears to be moot; the coin remains as vulnerable as ever, and traders should brace themselves for bitcoin to strike the $5,000 range next. […]
Bitcoin Price Watch: Currency Still at $6,700
Bitcoin is not changing. This is both a negative and a positive sign. $6,700 is nothing to be particularly pleased about considering the currency was trading in the $7,000, $8,000 and even $9,000 ranges over the past two months, yet we can’t help but feel a little relieved that bitcoin […]

Bitcoin is not going anywhere anytime soon. After 72 hours, the currency is staying put at $6,500, and support remains strong at the present level.

Many analysts and mainstream media outlets including Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal attributed the recent drop in the Bitcoin price from $7,500 to $6,700 to the hacking attack suffered by Coinrail, a minor cryptocurrency exchange in South Korea. However, the reasoning behind attributing the latest correction to Coinrail is […]
Bitcoin Price Watch: Currency Falls By $500
In an extremely disappointing move today, the father of digital currencies has fallen by an additional $500 and is now trading for just over $6,200. This is very disheartening news, as recovery does not appear to be in sight, and the $5,000 range for bitcoin seems imminent – a fate […]
Bitcoin Price Watch: Currency Hasn’t Moved in 48 Hours
At press time, bitcoin is still standing at the $7,600 mark. For the last two days, bitcoin hasn’t moved, and has been trapped in the red over news of a Coinrail hack and subpoenas issued by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) regarding bitcoin futures trading data. But is all […]

At press time, the father of cryptocurrencies is standing its ground at $7,600.

At press time, bitcoin is trading for just over 7,600. This is a near $60 drop since reaching yesterday’s high of $7,700. Though small, the currency has ultimately failed to defend this new line, leading analysts to wonder if $8,000 is no longer doable in the short-term. One source suggests […]
