Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Bitcoin on Monday climbed above the $65,000 level for the first time in more than two weeks.<\/p>\n

The last time the world’s biggest cryptocurrency was above that level was recorded on April 25.<\/p>\n

After climbing above the level early Monday, Bitcoin was trading around $64,100 as of 10.03 a.m. EDT (1403GMT) for a daily gain of 0.2%, according to data from CoinMarketCap, a digital asset price-tracking website.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin on Wednesday dove below the $57,000 level for the first time in more than two months, which marked the lowest level since Feb. 27.<\/p>\n

Ethereum, the world’s biggest altcoin by market cap, was down 0.4% to $3,121 then, but some altcoins saw their daily prices gain more than 10%.<\/p>\n

The value of the cryptocurrency market stood at $2.36 trillion, while Bitcoin’s share of the crypto market, known as dominance, was at 53.3% and Ethereum’s dominance was at 15.9%.<\/p>\n

The selloff in the cryptocurrency market last week came as investors’ demand has waned in Bitcoin since its halving last month, and Binance’s former CEO and co-founder was sentenced to four months in prison.<\/p>\n
