On Thursday (November 28), crypto traders around the world seem to have decided to celebrate America’s Thanksgiving holiday by doing some more shopping for crypto bargains, thereby helping 15 out of the top 20 cryptoassets to move higher today.
According to CryptoCompare, at 15:30 UTC, Bitcoin managed to surge above $7,600 (to $7,617) for the first time since November 22; this means that Bitcoin has jumped in value more than $1000 since just three days ago when it reached an intraday low of $6,575.

It’s almost as though Bitcoin traders have been thinking about Gorden Gecko’s famous “Greed Is Good” speech in the 1987 movie “Wall Street” (starring Michael Douglas and Charlie Sheen):
