Bitcoin Closes Daily Candle Above $20K
The $20K is one of the critical levels for Bitcoin. Over the past few weeks, BTC went down below this mark due to the solid bearish pull in the crypto market. But the leading crypto asset is gradually bringing back its value this week.
Bitcoin has finally closed a daily candle higher than $20,000 for the first time since September 17. This new feat strengthens the token positively, hovering between $18,000 and $24,000 for some months. Furthermore, this new position is the highest daily close for BTC in almost 24 days.
