Bitcoin heading toward a year-on-year loss on its 10th birthday
Bitcoin was heading toward a year-on-year loss on Wednesday, its 10th birthday, the first loss since last year’s bull market when the original and biggest digital coin muscled its way to worldwide attention with months of frenzied buying.
By 13:00 GMT, bitcoin was trading at $6,263 on the BitStamp exchange, leaving investors who had bought it on Halloween 2017 facing yearly losses of nearly 3%. Image source: Reuters
