#BTCBackto100K Today Thursday reached its highest level since February, surpassing the key level of $100,000. The price of the flagship cryptocurrency rose nearly 6%, standing at $101,679.85, according to Coin Metrics. The movement began overnight after President Donald Trump hinted at a trade announcement between the United States and the United Kingdom. Bitcoin continued its rise and reached $100,000 when Trump revealed the outlines of the agreement on Thursday morning. Stocks also rose. "Bitcoin has not only recovered $100,000 for the first time in three months, but it has also reaffirmed its status as the most resilient asset, as the prospects for trade agreements with the United States improve," said Antoni Trenchev, co-founder of the cryptocurrency exchange platform Nexo.
