This new year has not yet proved that much benefial for the BTC, the valuation has been deflating continuously and all the bitcoiner is holding their bitcoin for having profit and the lowest valuation to which BTC deflates is about $6k and this condition of BTC was in the month of February and now the current valuation of BTC is 9K USD and now again the valuation of BTC is again inflating . Yes I agree, it not yet reached that 15k USD but it will in the coming future.
