This is the reason for the rise in bitcoin
The acceptance of Bitcoin has increased worldwide, due to which people are investing heavily in this digital currency. Apart from the common people, now multinational companies like Apple and Tesla are also investing in Bitcoin and are talking about accepting it as a transaction. Last week Tesla, the company of the world’s richest man Elon Musk, made a big investment of $ 1.5 billion in bitcoin. In addition to Tesla, giant insurance company Mass-Mutual, asset manager Galaxy Digital Holding, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey’s payment company Squire have also made large investments in Bitcoin, causing its prices to skyrocket.
These are the possibilities in the future
Investment and brokerage firm JP Morgan said that if Bitcoin becomes Safe Heaven, its value could reach $ 1,46,000. At the same time, MasterCard is preparing to approve cryptocurrency payments on its network. In addition, Counterpoint Global, an investment company of Morgan Stanley, is also planning to invest heavily in Bitcoin. However, amid the big boom in Bitcoin, some experts say it is a digital bubble that is set to explode. Governments of many countries, including India, are going to enact laws to ban cryptocurrencies, causing great concern about the future of cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin.
