Bitcoin cash was once again a big mover, as the cryptocurrency rose by nearly 10% during today’s session. The move saw price climb to its highest level since mid-August, and came as U.S. dollar strength pushed the S&P 500 to a three-month low. Chainlink also rallied strongly on Wednesday.

Bitcoin Cash ($BCH)

Bitcoin cash ($BCH) continued to climb higher for a third straight session on Wednesday, as prices surged by nearly 10% in today’s session.

$BCH/USD peaked at $234.94 earlier in the day, which comes a day after falling to a low of $211.95.

This is the strongest point that the token has hit since August 10, when price was trading above $240.00.
