Bitcoin | The world's largest and most popular virtual currency, Bitcoin, rose one percent to $17,132.4. Its market value stood at $328.9 billion. The trade volume was at nearly $27 billion.
"Bitcoin traded higher on Wednesday as market participants reacted to Powell's remarks on interest rates after trading much of the past month below the $17,000 level. If the price can move above the current level, the next resistance would be at $17,622. However, if it falls below that level, BTC might consolidate between $15,476 and $16,910," said Edul Patel, CEO and Co-Founder of Mudrex.
