Quick Glance: Bitcoin: Why the Surge Might Not Last
- Bitcoin is back in the limelight with a significant surge to record levels and wild fluctuations.
- The resurgence of the Bitcoin market was significantly influenced by the decision of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to approve the spot trading of bitcoins by exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in January.
