The bitcoin price has just about managed to keep its head above water even after crashing by around 50% since October last year, with the bitcoin price trading sideways at around $60,000 for the last six months.
Now, as BlackRock reveals it’s just seen something shift, Trump is expected to attend a major bitcoin and crypto company meeting at the White House this coming week, according to various reports.
U.S. president Donald Trump is expected to attend a major bitcoin and crypto company meeting this week, according to reports citing anonymous sources.
