As CoinDesk reports, the bitcoin price has once again hit its historical maximum.
At the moment, the cost of the cryptocurrency is $ 61,222.
According to Reuters, Bitcoin's market value is now much higher than in early January when it was worth $ 27,734.
Exchange analysts linked the record rise in bitcoin's value with a significant investment in cryptocurrency by Tesla. In particular, on February 8, the founder of the Tesla auto concern, Elon Musk, announced his decision to invest $ 1.5 billion in bitcoin.
