We haven’t seen Bitcoin this expensive since December 2017. Is the next ATH nearby?

Bitcoin started the weekend moving around $15,500 and throughout the week steadily climbed to a price we haven’t seen in a while. Hours after a 35-month high of $16,400, Bitcoin closed the week trading at $16,200.

Ethereum is experiencing high volatility throughout the whole week. ETH hit a weekly low of $420 before quickly bouncing up to around $470 by the week’s end. Meanwhile, BNB reached its weekly high on Saturday at almost $30, before quickly dropping to a weekly low of $27. At the time of release, BNB trades slightly above $28.

The cryptocurrency industry’s total market capitalization started the week at $443 billion, with a slight upwards movement throughout the week, before reaching $464 billion on Friday, the highest point since May 2018.
