Bitcoin rose above $6,000 on Thursday, hitting its highest level against the dollar in nearly six months.

The cryptocurrency has been on a roller coaster ride since hitting a record high of over $19,000 in December 2017 before crashing to a low of nearly $3,100 in December 2018. Since then, it has had a slow recovery.
