Bitcoin extended to a new record this past weekend after spiking above the $60,000-price level. It is however not likely a coincidence that Bitcoin saw strength at the same time retail investors were receiving their latest round of stimulus checks from the US government. At the same time, Bitcoin took a downtrend in the week following the record breaking weekend.

With Bitcoin closing on to its ATH, full time trader Michaël van de Poppe believes that the final hurdle may take some time to break. In his article on Cointelegraph, Michael stated that the market will need to retest its current resistant and support levels before a ‘new impulse wave can begin’.

Bitcoin ‘too important to ignore’ – Deutsche Bank

Cointelegraph reports that the global banking giant Deutsche Bank expects governments to start regulating Bitcoin by the end of 2021.

In a study made by Deutsche Bank analysts, Deutsche analyzed Bitcoin’s key drivers and its historical price growth to the current market capitalization.

The firm emphasized the need for governments and Central banks to regulate Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies by the end of 2021 as they now “understand that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are here to stay” and suggested that Bitcoin price “could continue to rise” as long as companies and asset managers continue to enter the market.

Despite this, it remains to be seen whether this development would have a negative or positive impact on Bitcoin’s price action in the coming days.
