bitcoin entered mainstream circulation in 2009, but it was in the spring of 2013 that its value started to rise significantly, reaching just under $1,000 late that year. In 2017, its price soared, cracking $1,000 for the first time in January, before doubling by May, and again by August. In December, bitcoin [BTC]’s value surpassed $17,000.
