  • BTC hits a new yearly high
  • Bitcoin is poised for more gains, with both near term and long-term outlook being bullish

Bitcoin News Today – Over the past couple of hours, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) has been on a continuous uptrend. The digital currency has been showing some signs of a bullish trend. At the time of writing, the world’s most dominant digital currency is trading at $8,519 after an increase of 5 percent.

This is the highest level the digital currency has tested this year, as its recent surge was capped at $8,450, which caused BTC to return to $8,050. This 5 percent sharp increase is far from a stable uptrend. However, analysts believe that the short-term rally of the digital currency is not done yet.
