On April 1, 2013, Bitcoin traded above $100 for the first time, a milestone in its first market trip. Just four years earlier, Bitcoin had no currency. The $100 increase came at a time of global financial crisis, including the Cyprus banking crisis, which increased the need for alternatives to traditional banks. The exchange’s surge in media attention fueled the rally, signaling Bitcoin’s transition from a niche experiment to an emerging economy.
