Bitcoin, as well as other cryptocurrencies, trades higher today. The world's most famous cryptocurrency is trading 1.5% higher today and tests the $49,000 area. This is the zone that halted advance back in the first half of January. However, the coin enjoyed strong bullish momentum recently and a more sustained break above the $49,000 handle cannot be ruled out.
