Bitcoin (BTC) is at its highest point in two months when back in December, a usual buoyant month for investors, the flagship crypto was trapped under $8,000 as no Santa Clause rally took place.

No major surprises, no fundamental data that would jolt investors into either buying or shorting the crypto, and any chance of a Santa Claus rally would have to wait until next December.
It is no surprise that Bitcoin (BTC) miners compete with each other to get a single Bitcoin in circulation and that they also require the help of supercomputers to work out the complex math problems that unlock a new BTC.
