Speaking during an interview with TD Ameritrade Network, Purves noted that the enthusiasm witnessed at the start of the current bull run has slowed down, considering the digital asset has been trading in the range of its all-time high price. He expressed that bitcoin’s price movement in the last few months is a signal of unwillingness among investors to break new price levels. Notably, bitcoin has experienced a series of record prices in the last six months.
Is bitcoin’s position threatened?
He, however, clarified that the price movement is not a judgment on bitcoin’s position in the financial world. Purves stated the development should not determine bitcoin’s ability as an intrinsic value asset or a currency. Over the six months, bitcoin has undergone a series of record price levels, with the all-time high emerging on April 14, 2021, to trade at almost $65,000. By press time, the asset was trading at $51,850, plunging 5.36% in the last 24 hours, according to data provided by CoinMarketCap. The price marks bitcoin’s fourth day of weak market action.
