I think what thrives bitcoin is the rise of other cryptocurrencies. As time goes, lots of them were already available in the cryptomarket. This means that most people tend to invest on other cryptos based on their return and also diversify their assets.
So glad that bitcoin really recovers immediately, yes bitcoin really a great help for all the people, despite the negative news still people chooses to believe in it and that what makes the bitcoin unique, because people trusted this most.
