  • Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 184.74 points, or 0.56%, closed at 32,632.64 points.

Bitcoin Price Reaches New Historic High in Russia

While BTC/USD is still trading below $39,000, the Bitcoin price is rising to an all-time high of over 5 million rubles due to sanctions against Russia.

Yesterday, the ruble was at 160 rubles per dollar, compared to 70 rubles per dollar before Russia’s military operation to Ukraine.

This shows how fragile fiat currencies are. On the other hand, bitcoin remains strong despite extreme volatility.
