I know there has been some changes with Bitcoin, but I wouldn't think that anything big has happened (nor do I know of anything big that has happened) in the past month to justify this mass price influx. This is insane, and I really don't see a point to it.
I would expect some of you to know a bit more then me about it, so I await some more insight. Thanks!
The major reason behind price rising is adoption. Many people are becoming aware of bitcoin lately and some of them are seeing the potential of what bitcoin is going to make for them in future. People are saying it is because of the incoming hardfork that is being supported by blockchain.info but I disagree with them and I relate the price rising to adoption of crypto currencies all over the world.
