A pump in the final hour of Bitcoin’s trading week has crypto traders convinced the bull market is back on following last Thursday’s selloff.

Bitcoin jumped from $64,500 to $65,600 in the 60 minutes to 11am AEDT (midnight UTC), and reached a four-day peak of $US66,200 shortly after that. At 12.21 AEDT, Bitcoin was trading at $65,466, up 1.6 per cent.

While Bitcoin is traded around the clock, by convention many traders use trading candles based on Coordinated Universal Time, so the final hour jump meant the week ended on a positive note.

“They saved the weekly close,” tweeted legendary 19-year-old Bitcoin analyst Will Clemente.

Before the close, some had been a bit worried. One trader tweeted Bitcoin would be in “seriously bullish territory” if the close was above $64,800, but “iffy” otherwise. “That means we need to fookin send it tonight.”

Mission accomplished, ser.
