Bitcoin continues its phenomenal surge in the financial trading market as it already reached the $9,000 per token mark as of late November 2017. The leading cryptocurrency was also traded at $10,000 in some markets.

The sustained upward trajectory of the most popular cryptocurrency has continued to baffle both the virtual currency markets and the wider investment community.

These developments show that Bitcoin is slowly but surely realizing the visions of its developers when they launched the digital token. The cryptocurrency is envisioned to be both as a payment and investment alternative that can be accessed by everyone on the planet.

Why the continued rise?

The number one virtual token has already achieved major milestones during its eight years of existence. To honor Bitcoin for its accomplishments, here are several factors about it:
