US DOLLAR CRASHES AGAINST BITCOIN TO RECORD LOW
Bitcoin prices have charged past $10,000, delivering a new blow to the US dollar, now worth less than 0.0001 BTC for the first time.
$10K BITCOIN WEATHERS PRESS BUBBLE BARRAGE
Data uploaded Wednesday showed the unprecedented exchange rate come into being as Bitcoin continued towards $11,000.
Within hours of passing the magic $10k, the virtual currency hit a current all-time high of $10,696 before correcting downwards, according to Bitstamp.
As of press time, prices are on the move again, approaching $10,750 as enthusiasm shows no signs of abating and markets avoid sustained profit-taking.
A five-figure Bitcoin has caused renewed unease among the already sceptical mainstream press, with publications continuing to call time on a bubble. For buoyant Bitcoin community members, this made the USD readings all the more pertinent.

Bitcoin hits $10,000. 🚀🎉🎊
Congratulations to all the hodlers! This is by far the strongest Bitcoin bull run I've seen in 6+ years.
Now take some profit off the table. You deserve it for believing when no one else around you did. 👍
“They said it was a bubble at $1,000, they said it was a bubble at $5,000 and they said it was a bubble at $10,000,” Hong Kong’s BitMEX exchange CEO Hayes meanwhile told Bloomberg analyzing the price trend.
…The fear of missing out is becoming stronger and stronger. The traditional asset manager or investor, banker who has probably poo-pooed bitcoin the past few years is now paying upwards of thousands of dollars to hear about how they can get involved in this new industry.
Sounding more overwhelmed meanwhile, veteran trader Peter Brandt said he had “never seen anything like” what Bitcoin had achieved in 2017.

Hello & Cheers!! I'm a content detection and information bot. You are receiving this reply because a short link or links have been detected in your post/comment. The purpose of this message is to inform your readers and yourself about the use of and dangers of short links.
To the readers of the post: Short links are provided by url shortening services. The short links they provide can be useful in some cases. Generally their use is benign. But as with all useful tools there are dangers. Short links can be used to hide all sorts of things. Quite frequently they are used to hide referral links for instance. While not dangerous this can be deceptive. They can also be used to hide dangerous links such as links to phishing sites, sites loaded with malware, scam sites, etc. You should always be extremely cautious before clicking on one. If you don't know and trust the poster don't click. Even if you do you should still be cautious and wary of any site you are sent to. It's always better to visit the site directly and not through a short link.
To the author of the post: While short links may be useful on some sites they are not needed on steemit. You can use markdown to format your links such as this link to steemit. It's as simple as
[steemit](https://steemit.com)Unlike short links this allows the reader to see where they are going by simply hovering over the link before they click on it.
