After a series of collapses, scandals and one very high-profile federal conviction, crypto—and specifically Bitcoin—actually looks to be making a comeback. The funny money topped $42,000 for the first time in 19 months as frenzied speculation in cryptocurrencies (as if there were another kind) extended a rally in the largest digital token to more than 150% this year.（在一連串的價格暴跌、醜聞和一次非常備受關注的聯邦定罪之後，加密貨幣，特別是比特幣，實際上似乎正在捲土重來。這種有趣的貨幣首次在19個月內超過42000美元，隨著加密貨幣的狂熱投機（彷彿還有其他類型一樣）將最大的數位代幣的漲勢延續到今年超過150%。）
