The Bitcoin rise to a new record on Tuesday and scored $ 3525. That's three times the value of gold. Since Bitcoin Cash split, Bitcoin shoots up as a comet. Who bought Bitcoin on August 1, has earned $ 600 a fortnight.
Some analysts believe that further growth is possible at 4000 and even 5,000 dollars. Beginning this year, the Bitcoin was still $ 1000.
Other crypto coins are successfully sucked. Ethereum scored Tuesday $ 290 and clone mint Bitcoin Cash $ 380.
With this new highlight, all the crypto coins together (including Litecoin and Ethereum) have a market capitalization of 121 billion dollars. That was 'only' 15.5 billion on January 1.
But the bitter the bitcoin increases, the more it is speculated about the bubble burst. The 400 percent increase for Bitcoin measured over a year finds Wall Street veterans unhealthy.
Samson Mow, associated with Blockstream, finds it unwise to use the Bitcoin as an investment, he says to CBS. "The total availability of the Bitcoin is limited and production halves every four years, not to mention the cost of mining (creating) new coins. There are 1,800 bit coins per day. If you want to hold the price, you have to pump some money. "
The Dutch investor association VEB also sees all signs of a bubble and comparisons with the tulip mania are not out of the air. The total market value of all crypt currencies together has been about six times over this year. Business Bank Goldman Sachs warned last month for a temporary implosion of the Bitcoin, but expects the price will eventually climb further.
