Bitcoin price LIVE: BTC's 'inevitable' rise continues as G20 settle on crypto 'framework'

in mgsc •  7 years ago 

BITCOIN has held its position overnight after rising from $6,351 to a high of $6,739 yesterday afternoon. More positive news comes from the Financial Stability Board (FSB) who pushed crypto further towards the mainstream on Monday, announcing a "framework" to monitor crypto-assets in markets across G20 nations.

The FSB has sent the crypto community a welcome boost after delivering a framework for the world's leading G20 countries to “monitor the financial stability implications of crypto-assets markets.”

Pouring cold water on the idea of crypto sparking the next global financial meltdown the FSB said that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin “do not pose a material risk to global financial stability” but they fully support their “vigilant monitoring.”

The good news comes just a day after the world's largest assset manager signalled their intent to move closer to crypto with a possible entry into bitcoin futures.
