THE FEATURE

It's Official: Bitcoin's Price Makes History Passing $10k


Call it the icing on the cake.

CoinDesk's latest conference, Consensus: Invest, capped yesterday in New York with the bitcoin price topping $10,000 for the first time. Yet on the ground, the price was far from the only topic of conversation.

Luckily, CoinDesk's New York team was there to capture the diversity.

Managing editor Marc Hochstein discussed how institutional trading tools are coming to bitcoin, hinting at the mixed sentiment; while reporter Brady Dale took a look at the cooling attitudes toward ICOs.

Elsewhere, CoinDesk's news team was in attendance, chronicling the major panels of note, as well as all news and announcements.

If you don't see the show yourself in attendance (or via livestream), there's still plenty of video content to check out as well.

A scroll through our Twitter feed offers 20 original interviews conducted backstage by editor-in-chief Pete Rizzo. Some of our favorites discussed the "dark days" of bitcoin's price declines, how cryptocurrency is changing wealth and power dynamics and more.

Missed the action? It's all on our Twitter feed. But of course, you had that already :)
