Where Might WBTC Be Headed?

Because the price drop for the last 24 hours is so low, we definitely expect the rate to go up by tomorrow. This may be your last chance to buy in on the downturn before we see the turnaround.

Wrapped Bitcoin is tied to original Bitcoin (BTC), usually trailing it by just a little bit. That means that where Bitcoin is headed, Wrapped Bitcoin is going to follow.

At the moment, Bitcoin is doing well, enjoying a healthy market performance and playing pretty close to its recent all time high price. It’s also still ranked #1 for the crypto market and dominates more than 41% of the market. Wrapped Bitcoin enjoys a lot of the same benefits, as its value is linked to that of Bitcoin. It simply gives investors a different way to use their money, functioning on different trade platforms than regular Bitcoin.

Expect Wrapped Bitcoin to push past $60,000 quickly and test the $65,000 level over the next couple weeks, if not sooner.
