The world's largest cryptocurrency was last up 1.19% at $49,888. It had risen as high as $50,562 as investors bet that the prospect of more U.S. stimulus spending would lead to further gains, and more mainstream financial services firms made moves in the nascent asset class.

Meanwhile, the price of rival cryptocurrency ether rose 2.71% to $3,329. The virtual coin has risen 91%
