Bitcoin Reaches $60,000 After Shots Being Fired at Donald Trump
After a prolonged period of decline in which the price of Bitcoin fell below $54,000, the cryptocurrency managed to rise again to $60,000.
At the time of writing, BTC was trading at around $60,190, representing aroud 4% daily and 4.5% weekly gain. This jump comes shortly after someone opened fire on US presidential candidate Donald Trump.
