Bitcoin reclaiming the $20,000 mark, its major support and psychological level. Bitcoin fell below $20,000 on Sunday as part of a wider cryptocurrency-market retreat, amid concern about the Federal Reserve's rate-hike path, Reuters reported.

However, the total trading volume dropped about 20 per cent to $64.88 billion.
