Cryptocurrency is increasingly being accepted as a medium of exchange; in fact, the nation of El Salvador last year officially adopted Bitcoin as official currency, much like the American dollar. Bitcoin’s success has led to the creation of other forms of cryptocurrency; some are pinned to the value of tangible assets such as the dollar, others are based solely on their market value. As with many assets that are on the rise, the value of cryptocurrency has been volatile. Speculation on the currency’s market value can inspire large buys, which drive up the price and spur new investors. Cryptocurrency offers an alternative for those who want such a secure medium of exchange — as long as it’s left alone.

Bitcoin's price broke above $50,000 for the first time in history Tuesday, continuing its blistering rally as major companies appear to be warming to cryptocurrencies. The world's largest digital currency by market value rose more than 3% to an all-time high of $50,487 at about 7:30 a.m. Bitcoin has gotten a boost from news of large firms like Tesla and Mastercard showing support for crypto. Tesla's use of corporate cash to buy bitcoin sparked speculation over whether other major companies would follow suit. Bitcoin skyrocketed to nearly $20,000 in late 2017 before losing more than 80% of its value the following year.

The reason is the price of Bitcoin, the most popular form of cryptocurrency, which has skyrocketed to record levels. The price of Bitcoin on Sunday was more than $33,000, a record high, before dropping to over $31,000 on Monday morning. But what exactly is it, and what does it mean for investors in the short term and long term? It’s a similar concept to having tokens in an arcade or casino chips, and exchanging real money for them or cashing them out for real money. Many feel Bitcoin is the currency of the future and want to buy it now.
