Research from digital currency exchange SFOX revealed that bitcoin has experienced positive market movements in these coming weeks
On Labor Day in September, the price of bitcoin rose by around 5 per cent in a single day, followed by a further 4 per cent the next day.
Similarly, the Fourth of July holiday earlier this year resulted in significant gains for the cryptocurrency, with an increase of 14 per cent between 2 July and 4 July.
