Yesterday, we wondered if “Uptober” was finally here. Now we’re pretty sure.
Bitcoin spiked to just shy of $68,000 this morning, wrecking loads of short positions in the process.

The last time we saw Bitcoin approach $68,000 was in July.
While October got off to a stumbling start for the crypto industry, Bitcoin is now firmly up since the start of the month, and has popped by 11% over the past 30 days.
