On Tuesday, Peter Boockvar of Bleakley Financial Group was the latest investor to take a shot at bitcoin, saying it’s part of an “everything bubble” that is forming. Boockvar was speaking on CNBC’s Futures Now.
Elsewhere, ether, which runs on the Ethereum network, is up 4.7% at $891.78, bitcoin cash last traded at $1,296.31—up 3.9%, Litecoin is the biggest mover, climbing 23% to $196.95 and Ripple is up 3% at $1.07, according to CoinDesk.
