"After collapsing in mid-November, BTC’s price is now back near the $17,000 level. However, BTC is trading below its previous annual minimum peak of $17,500 touched in June. If bulls can make a move above the $17,500 holding on to it, we could see BTC at the $18,000 level soon," said Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder of Mudrex.
