Some BitMEX users are, however, in favor of the decision as it may help the exchange improve its security and appeal to would-be customers. All said and done, the u-turn into a conventional exchange underlines the impact

Bitcoin started the week on a positive note after an unusually volatile weekend by recent standards. The BTC/USD price temporarily reached a local high of over $12,000. The eventful weekend was preceded by a credit-rating downgrade from Fitch who placed a “negative outlook” on the United State’s triple-A rating on Friday. Fitch added that a “resurgence of inflation” could be on the cards, which would in turn force the Fed to increase interest rates. It would be interesting to see the effects that would have on Bitcoin and its brethren.

Cryptocurrency markets have reached their highest levels this year in terms of total market capitalization. Trouncing February’s highs of $300 billion, the total market cap surged to $360 billion this past Sunday. The figure has yet to top the 2019 peak in mid-June when the total cap exceeded
