Bitcoin (Briefly) Hits $50,000
Happy Tuesday, Blockfolians
The Lede
After a week of massive institutional news, and after days of flirting with a new all time high, bitcoin this morning finally achieved another new psychological milestone of $50,000.
While the price itself was short lived, the day was then full of exactly the type of news that got us up into this rarified air in the first place:
MicroStrategy files to offer $600 more in debt to buy more bitcoin
NYDIG files for a Bitcoin ETF
Grayscale adds 3 C-level execs
And so much more.
Seems pretty clear we’ll be seeing $50,000 again before too long.
