Bitcoins price recovery after the recent market-wide crash continued in the past 24 hours as the asset jumped to just under $62,500 but failed there and retraced by several hundred dollars.

The altcoins are also slightly in the green on a daily scale, with ETH nearing $3,400 and BNB closing down at $580.

BTC Eyes $62K

It was less than a week ago last Thursday, when bitcoins price stood tall at over $66,000. However, it started to lose ground on Friday, slipped below $64,000 and bounced off to just over that level during the weekend. Saturday and Sunday went quietly, with little to no action.

The landscape changed for the worse on Monday when the bears took control of the market amid disturbing Mt. Gox news and pushed BTC south hard. In a matter of hours, the cryptocurrency slumped to $58,450 for the first time in nearly two months.

As warning signs started to appear that the asset might dump to $50,000 and even $45,000, BTC actually reversed its trajectory and jumped to $61,000 yesterday morning. It kept rising during the day and touched $62,400 (on Bitstamp) later on.
