Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) is bullish and then some. The coin is still on an impressive bull-run.
The run has extended over 10 days and doesn’t seem to be slowing. Yes, Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) may have taken a step back here and there in its climb, but it has continually managed to take two steps forward.
At the time of writing the price is $7,710 – it did reach a two-month high of 7,800 earlier this morning – but the current stand-point still represents a rise of over 3.3% in the last 24 hours.

Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) is Bullish but G20 is Still Coy
Despite the obvious buzz surrounding crypto’s (especially in this very bullish market of late) the G20 has confirmed that it will not engage with market regulation at least until October.
This was confirmed at a meeting held July 21-22 in Argentina, in which G20 finance ministers had cryptocurrency regulation on the minutes of their meeting.
The resulting thought on the subject was that cryptocurrencies do not “pose a global financial stability risk” at the moment, and as a result, there seems to be no rush on regulation.
This is despite a plan (that was set in motion back in March) to arrive at a harmonized decision on regulating cryptocurrencies across the member countries of the G20.
The weekend meeting has confirmed that no definitive conclusions have been made on the subject, as on Sunday, the group asked the Financial Action Task Force (FATF)—an international body for fighting money laundering and terrorist financing—to “clarify in October 2018 how its standards apply to crypto-assets.”
