BITCOIN: HOW TO BUY AND KNOW THE COURSE IN EUROS
How far will Bitcoin go? The first of the virtual currencies in terms of capitalization (more than 240 billion euros on December 13, 2017) is currently trading at more than 14,000 euros and its price is showing an insolent growth of 1.875% over one year. What give individuals the desire to buy, but the game is not without risks. Investing in virtual currencies is highly speculative. Their market is unregulated and anyone who starts it must be prepared to lose their entire investment.
First remark when arriving in the world of virtual currencies: Bitcoin has no official course. No need to search: you will not find anything really accurate by typing "Bitcoin euro course" in Google. This is explained because each exchange platform offers his own. There are significant variations between them, sometimes several thousand dollars. Prudence, then, before buying. For example, Wednesday, December 13, 2017 at 10:30, Bitcoin traded at the following prices on the main platforms:
Kraken: 16,523 dollars (14,063 euros)
GDAX: 17,250 dollars (14,684 euros)
Gemini: 17,033 dollars (14,499 euros)
Bitfinex: 16,480 dollars (14,026 euros)
Bitstamp: 16,559 dollars (14,095 euros)
Bittrex: 15,970 dollars (13,592 euros)
