Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this morning.

Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this morning. Ok, let’s get things kicked off for a fresh week of trading in the bitcoin price. Things have been pretty inconsistent over the last couple of weeks.
