Bitcoin (BTC) has made it through the weekend with support at or above $18,000 relatively intact. It did, however, briefly dip down to a trading price of about $17,750 on Sunday, but has since recovered and is trading for roughly $18,475 at press time, according to data from CoinMarketCap. But Bitcoin is not alone in this recent rally. Many so-called altcoins, such as Ethereum (ETH) and XRP,  are seeing considerable upward movement, with both posting double-digit percentage gains in the past 24 hours. Also derived from CoinMarketCap’s data, Ethereum is up about 11 percent, and XRP is up 22.5 percent over yesterday, at press time.

Dan Schulman, CEO of PayPal (NasdaqGS:PYPL), did an interview with CNBC’s Squawk Box, in which he explained the company’s plans for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency adoption:

 

“One of the things that we allowed is not just making it easy to buy, sell and hold cryptocurrencies, but very importantly, early next year, we’re going to allow cryptocurrencies to be a funding source for any transaction happening on all 28 million of our merchants. And that will significantly bolster the utility of cryptocurrencies.”
