Cryptocurrency Bitcoin price is soaring day after day.
According to the cryptocurrency exchange Upbit on the 20th, at 10:17 am on the day, 1 bitcoin was traded at 65092,000 won. The current price is 6,5235,000 won.
In Upbit, Bitcoin surpassed 60 million won before midnight the night before, and it is gradually increasing its peak afterwards.
At this time, bitcoin is being traded at a price of over 64 million won per piece at other exchanges such as Bithumb, Copax, and Corbit.
Unlike the stock market, transactions are conducted on an exchange basis, so even the same type of cryptocurrency has a slightly different transaction price for each exchange.
According to CoinDesk, a cryptocurrency site, overseas bitcoin prices are hitting 56,000 dollars (about 6182 million won) at the same time.
On the night of the 16th, the peak was raised again after surpassing the 50,000 dollar mark for the first time in history, followed by the 51,000 dollar level on the 17th and the 52,000 dollar level on the 18th.
As a result, the price of bitcoin has risen more than four times last year and has already risen more than 80% this year.
Bitcoin’s market cap also crossed the wall of 1 trillion dollars (about 1,100 trillion won) for the first time. This is greater than the market cap of most companies around the world.
