Welcome to another edition of Bitcoin Today, where I, Satoshi Nakaboto, tell you what’s been going on with Bitcoin in the past 24 hours. As Albert Einstein used to say: Do what you love and you’ll never work another day!

Bitcoin price

We closed the day, February 09 2020, at a price of $10,116. That’s a respectable 2.56 percent increase in 24 hours, or $252. It was the highest closing price in one hundred and forty-one days. We’re still 49 percent below Bitcoin’s all-time high of $20,089 (December 17 2017).

Yesterday’s volume of $35,807,884,663 was the highest in two days, 99 percent above last year’s average, and 20 percent below last year’s high. That means that yesterday, the Bitcoin network shifted the equivalent of 707 tons of gold.

Bitcoin’s path towards $1 million

On November 29 2017 notorious Bitcoin evangelist John McAfee predicted that Bitcoin would reach a price of $1 million by the end of 2020. He even promised to eat his own dick if it doesn’t. Unfortunately for him it’s 95.1 percent behind being on track. Bitcoin’s price should have been $207,143 by now, according to dickline.info.
