Bitcoin Breaks $40,000, Then Quickly Retraces to $37,500



Bitcoin has been erupting higher in spite of the chaos in the U.S. capital. The leading cryptocurrency just moved past $40,000 for the first time ever, reaching prices 100% over where the cryptocurrency was just weeks ago.


BTC has since pulled back slightly as there has been some selling pressure at that key psychological level.

The cryptocurrency has entered a parabolic phase, having pushed past key resistance levels day after day. BTC is reaching overbought territory, analysts say, but some have asked if this is a real concern for the market. Bitcoin can be overbought for extended periods of time, some market participants have explained as a way to try and dissuade those expecting a correction.
