The Relative Strength Index also shows bullish conditions may continue as momentum builds. In other countries, bitcoin price spreads are higher than the global average which shows strong demand. For instance, the South Korean bitcoin exchange Coinone shows an average of $1280 per BTC but one quick price spike brought the price to $1880 USD around 14:30 Beijing time.........
