The incident came amid a surge in Bitcoin’s price. BTC broke through $60,000 earlier this morning before extending its rally to $64,000. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $60,000, according to CoinGecko’s data.
Bitcoin’s price is currently up around 40% over the past month. If the momentum is maintained through the end of this month, Bitcoin is on track to achieve five consecutive months of gains.
