  • 5 years ago
Bitcoin prices hit a 18-month high on Wednesday...following Facebook's announcement that it plans to offer its own 'Libra' cryptocurrency in 2020.
Bitcoin has risen every day for eight straight days, soaring past 13,000 U.S. dollars.
That's a roughly 150% jump in just over a month.
Market watchers think Facebook's announcement roughly two weeks ago fueled investors' interest in digital currencies as many look for safety in alternative investment options.
