Weekly Blockchain News with Mammycrypto Dec, 5th 2020
December is here, and we have realized that 2020 has passed by us like a mad train. Despite the chaos, the crypto markets not only survived one of its biggest challenges, the covid-19 pandemic fear, but it proved to be a hedging solution for many. There is a current need for an easy way to transact. And the world is currently feeling the pressure to adapt to a digital financial spectrum. Bitcoin together with other cryptocurrencies has been proving its usefulness and is being adopted by large corporations such as PayPal and attracting the attention of large investors and investment funds such as Michael Saylor and Jp Morgan. Who knew everybody one day would jump on this train? Nobody was sure but we certainly hoped that the world would eventually accept and endorse this amazing technology.
This week, the crypto markets have been moving sideways and in the last few days fluctuating between the highs $18000s to the low $19000s. Truly impressive to see the price of Bitcoin standing steady close to its all-time high. The pressure is high! Super high, and we can expect some volatility in the course of more developments and headlines.
