The price of one bitcoin (BTC) reached an all-time high of $19,783.06 on 17th Dec 2017 before retracing all the way to $6850 on 5th Feb 2018

 

It has since eroded over 65% of market value from the highs it made and in the process, has entrapped many investors who are possibly waiting for the next move. Either, they have to book losses or wait indefinitely to recover the cost.

 

As we write, 1 bitcoin is valued at $6856.10. It would be interesting to see where it goes from here.
