Bitcoin usually compared to the dollar, took it place in the table of history as it set's its ever climaxing value going above £5000
The digital currency peaked at $6,649.33 (£5,015) at about 16:34 GMT on Wednesday, according to Bloomberg
It is not surprising that the Bitcoin in circulation meets an average value of $110bn (£83bn) and the crypto currency has risen more than seven-fold against the dollar over the past year.

Bitcoin which was launched in January 2009. With a value lower than $100 in June 2013, and below $1,000 as recently as January 2017.
But in August, the virtual currency soared to $3,451 after a spin-off - Bitcoin Cash - failed to prove as disruptive as had been feared.
And in September, Bitcoin crossed the $5,000 thresholdfor the first time.
It would not be surprising if the price were to go even higher.
