Bitcoin Posts A New All-time High of $29,300
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $28,400 after posting a new all-time high of $29,300 earlier today. The new all-time high is only $700 dollars away from the highly anticipated $30k price of Bitcoin that many believe will be a proper way of ending 2020 and beginning 2021.
Fear and Greed Index Still Above 90
A quick glance at the fear and greed index reveals that it is about to complete a second month above the 90 value mark. At the time of writing, the fear and greed index is at 95 indicating that traders and investors are generally bullish with many expecting Bitcoin to hit the earlier mentioned $30k price level.
However, Bitcoin’s monthly and yearly close is only a few hours away and this event could bring high volatility as BTC bears attempt to erase gains made in the last few weeks.
