The price of bitcoin continues to climb.
It rose to over $ 65,000 on Wednesday.
A surge which can be explained in particular by the launch of a financial product on Wall Street linked to cryptocurrency.
This is a historic step for its democratization.
The cryptocurrency, which traded for less than a dollar 12 years ago, peaked during the session at $ 65,490 around 1:45 p.m. GMT (3:45 p.m. in Paris), up more than 50% over a month and more than 450% over one year.
