Bitcoin Builds Momentum In Run To $10,000
Bitcoin has repeatedly approached $10,000 in recent weeks, testing this key price level before continually backing off.
The price of Bitcoin rose to as much as $9,954.95 on Saturday, May 5, briefly fluctuating close to $10,000 before falling back to $9,409.23 the following day, CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index (BPI) figures show.
The digital currency once again moved toward $10,000, peaking at $9,634.83 earlier today and then retreating to $9,207.28 a few hours later, additional BPI data reveals.

“The consolidation we’re seeing now is actually quite healthy,” said Mati Greenspan, senior market analyst for social trading platform eToro.
“In the meantime, we’re holding well above the support at $9,000,” he emphasized.
Since $10,000 is such a psychologically important level, it is perfectly normal for Bitcoin to encounter some resistance, stated David Johnson, CEO of tasking platform Latium.
