Bitcoin’s (BTC) price has seen a slight decline over the last few days. The dip could be due to investors booking profits after the asset climbed to a new peak. The Bitcoin (BTC) transfer from Elon Musk’s SpaceX may have spooked investors. However, the company has not shown any signs of selling its BTC holdings yet. Musk has been very vocal about his support for cryptocurrencies. Many of his business ventures have enabled crypto payments, especially Dogecoin (DOGE) and BTC.
