It's been a rough week for Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency dropped below $8,000 on Friday, marking the third biggest drop over a five-year span. Bitcoin developer Jimmy Songs explains why he remains bullish.
"This is something that has happened in the past, and will happen in the future," says Song. "If you're looking out five to ten years this is an excellent investment."
Shares of Bitcoin plummeted after India's Minister of Finance announced plans to ban the digital currency. "Not everyone is fit for it, especially during these down times," said Song.
