Bitcoin hitting record highs, the continuation of a rally that has been building for a couple of months. There are a couple of factors the mainstreaming of bitcoin. You may recall earlier this year regulators in the us open and investing opportunities attached to crypto currencies to more investors, and since then funds have been pouring into that.
