Bitcoin: A Brief Price History of the First Cryptocurrency (Updated 2023)

In just over a decade, bitcoin has grown a cult-like following and surged to impressive heights. Now the cryptocurrency of choice, its meteoric rise has been unlike any other commodity, resource or asset — and it's seeing gains again in 2023.
