Bitcoin Bounces Back After Dropping Below $30,000 Bitcoin returned above the $30,000 mark on June 23 after plunging to a five-month low of $28,600 yesterday before managing to climb above a pullback. The leading cryptocurrency rose as much as 7% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading above $34,000, according to data from CoinGecko. The digital asset plunged almost 12% yesterday to hit $28,824. Prior to that, the digital asset hadn’t fallen below $30,000 since January. Bitcoin has lost more than 50% from its all-time high of almost $65,000 in April to dipping below $30,000 yesterday, losing almost half its value. The value of the cryptocurrency has lost dramatically this year for a range of reasons, including concerns about the environmental impact of Bitcoin mining on China’s stringent crypto crackdown. However, booming rallies and quick downturns are not uncommon for Bitcoin as the digital asset went through the same fate in 2017 by rising more than 1,000% that year to losing roughly 75% in the following year.
