On Monday, March 4, the value of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin reached a two-year high, breaking through $64 thousand and rising by 2%.
This was reported by Reuters.
It is noted that at the beginning of the Asian day, bitcoin reached $64,285, which is the highest since the end of 2021, and increased by 2% over the last session to $63,850.
