Bitcoin mania is back, with the price of the popular cryptocurrency soaring to new heights. Recently, Bitcoin crossed the $60,000 mark, reaching levels not seen since 2021. The surge in price led to chaos on crypto trading platform Coinbase, as the influx of users caused disruptions, including displays of zero balances in accounts.

As the price continued its upward trajectory, Bitcoin briefly touched $64,000, stirring excitement in the cryptocurrency community. The optimism around spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and the upcoming halving event fueled market sentiment, according to a report by Grayscale. Major crypto-related stocks also experienced a boost in value as Bitcoin surpassed $63,000.

However, the rapid rise in price was not without its setbacks. Bitcoin fell back below $60,000 after a remarkable rally that saw it approaching $64,000. Analysts attributed this decline to profit-taking by investors, highlighting the volatile nature of the cryptocurrency market.

In a surprising turn of events, financial pundit Jim Cramer weighed in on Bitcoin as it surged past $63,000. Cramer's rhetoric added another layer of intrigue to the Bitcoin frenzy, emphasizing its status as the largest cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization.

As the world's largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin is once again within striking distance of its all-time high, prompting investors to turn increasingly bullish on its potential. Additionally, Strike, a Bitcoin-focused payments application, has expanded its services to seven African countries, showcasing the growing adoption of Bitcoin in the region.
