That's it Bitcoin seems to have reached an impressive milestone as earlier this week the digital cryptocurrency became more valuable than gold for the first time.
On Thursday, the digital currency hit the price of 1268 dollars (for a Bitcoin) while an ounce of gold costs 1.233 dollars according to the BBC.
Bitcoin seems to recover for good by a massive drop that has reached 200 dollars per unit in the middle of 2015. Since then Vitcoin has continued to raise his value but also to optimize his reputation.
The CoinDesk published a price comparison chart between the two of goods to show how their prices have been going over the last three years:

Earlier this year, the digital currency made several headlines when it surpassed 1.000 dollars for the first time since 2013.
After the initial shock received by the currency from the announcement of the closure of the electronic drug-market Silk Road, seems to be coming together. Bitcoin's bad reputation seems to have been overcome since every now and then we see more services adopting it as a payment method.
