While Bitcoin is consolidating below $ 64 thousand after yesterday’s growth, the Ethereum exchange rate continues to conquer record highs. The second largest digital currency was marked at new peaks beyond the level of $ 4,600 at auction on Wednesday, after which it slightly rolled back. This is the sixth week of a continuous rise in the altcoin rate, which now seems to be aiming at the psychological mark of $ 5,000.

In the wake of the recent rise in the XRP exchange rate, trading volumes have also increased noticeably, and after a short pause, it seems that we can count on a new rally.
