Notable analysts suggest that it is highly likely that the digital currencyhas grown because of mogul investors like Paul Tudor Jones and StanleyDruckenmiller who had moved their tangible assets into the crypto-market.Concurrently, tech firms like Square and MicroStrategy had converted theirliability assets to buy Bitcoin.

Charles Hayter, the CEO of the digital market data provider CryptoCompare,told CNBC, “This is the domino effect as asset managers tumble theirportfolios into Bitcoin”.

Bitcoin’s latest surge has somewhat nudged active market watchers toremember its 2017 rally that had almost peaked at $20,000 although anail-biting pullback the following year dropped it close to $3,000.
