The bitcoin (BTC) rate on Friday, August 6, is holding around $ 40,800. During the day, the cryptocurrency tried to gain a foothold above $ 41,000, but it did not have enough support to hold positions.
Bloomberg strategist Mike McGlone recently stated that BTC has a realistic chance of repeating the spring run that saw its all-time high of $ 64,000.
Moreover, the same analyst claims that bitcoin is more prone to growth than a rollback to $ 20,000. The strategist expressed this point of view when the coin was trading below $ 35,000, and many observers predicted a further drop in its value.
