Bitcoin’s ripple effect

Notably, Bitcoin setting new record highs seems to have had an impact on not only the rest of the cryptocurrency market but other financial and non-financial institutions that have a shared interest. MicroStrategy, a software and Bitcoin development company, saw its stock price hit a 24-years high today, with its value reaching a high of $351.73 today.

Coinbase, an American-based cryptocurrency exchange, also registered a similar trend. The firm’s stock price reached a high of $334.86, a level not seen since November 2021. Notably, Coinbase was one of the political donors that poured in millions of dollars towards pro-crypto and bipartisan super PAC Fairehake. And, the investments seems to be turning out in favour of the firm, and the actual gains could be measured in its Q4 reports, which would be released next year.
