On the back of its recovery, the market had reached a high of $599.7 billion yesterday. On Friday, it tumbled to valuations as low as $432 billion.
Bitcoin futures contracts expiring in January, which is the most-traded derivative, closed at $13,960 and $14,135 at close on trading in CBOE and CME respectively.
