CBOE bitcoin futures listed
Bitcoin is no stranger to a person who loves to invest. In 2008, bitcoin still appeared in our view at a very low price. But 18 years later, the price of bitcoin began to soar, and soon broke through the 10000 yuan mark. Now, bitcoin has exceeded 100000 yuan each, and bitcoin is not a real capital or material property, but a virtual currency. In the Internet, the value of such a virtual currency has been speculation above 100000 yuan. What is behind such madness
