U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Massachusetts) has something in common with former President Donald Trump: neither one of them is a fan of Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is a popular cryptocurrency that has surged in value in recent years as demand for it has increased — with some dips along the way. At times this year, a single bitcoin has been worth more than $60,000. As of Wednesday afternoon, December 29, one Bitcoin was worth $47,163.90. Meanwhile, early in 2011, one Bitcoin was worth $1. Additionally, a Bitcoin was worth around $5,000 on March 13, 2020 after peaking at nearly $20,000 in December 2017.
