Bitcoin Records Biggest Daily Gain in Two Months as Price Touches $32k

Bitcoin investors were able to breathe a collective sigh of relief after the painful 9-week long downtrend, which saw the world’s largest crypto fall by almost 40%, seems to finally be coming to an end. The price of Bitcoin surged by 9% as cryptocurrency bulls took the reigns early on Monday.

The rare rally saw the price of Bitcoin touch $32k for the first time since May 11th. Bitcoin recorded the upturn during the Asian and European equity markets, despite American markets being closed on Monday.

The 9% rally for Bitcoin marks the leading asset’s biggest daily price rise in two months. The price of the pioneer coin has now stabilized at $31.5k at the time of writing, after recording gains of 3.5% over the last 24 hours.

Glassnode explains that the massive rally could be linked to the weaker position of the dollar. On-chain reports now suggest that Bitcoin investors are “the only ones left”, and they appear to be “doubling down” on their positions as the price of Bitcoin corrects.

Flipsider:

- With Bitcoin breaking past the $30,000 level, it is vital that it holds the $29,300 level in the event of a retest to have the best chance of continuing its revival.
