Bitcoin & Ethereum Price Leads the Rally

The bitcoin price led the charge, increasing by more than 5% in 24 hours to $2534. This price rally was a welcome change from yesterday, when bitcoin fell well below $2400. The bitcoin price still has some climbing to do if it wants to get back to $3,000, but today has put it on the right track.

Plagued with a congested network and false rumors about a co-founder’s death, the market downturn absolutely pummeled Ethereum, dropping it more than 40% from its mid-June high of $391. As recently as yesterday, the ethereum price was only $231, and the Flippening was getting further and further out of sight.
