Bitcoin Price Recovers from Post-Christmas Decline
The price of bitcoin plummeted almost immediately after Christmas by around 10%, dropping from US$455 to US$410 per bitcoin as expected. Prior to the decline, bitcoin experts predicted a substantial decrease in the bitcoin price following the plunge in bitcoin daily transaction and trading volumes. According to data provided by bitcoinity, both daily transactions and trading volumes dropped by over 14%, even on dominant bitcoin exchanges such as OKCoin and BitFinex. Bitcoin performed particularly bad against the Chinese Yuan, as seen below.
