Bitcoin drops below $6,000 as crypto rout worsens

in #blockchain6 years ago (edited)

Bitcoin dropped below $6,000 and dozens of smaller digital tokens tumbled as this month’s selloff in cryptocurrencies showed few signs of letting up.bitcoin-thinkstock.jpg
The largest digital currency fell as much as 6.2 percent to $5,887 as of 3:07 p.m. in Hong Kong, the lowest level since June, according to Bloomberg composite pricing. Ether sank as much as 13 percent, while all but three of the 100 biggest cryptocurrencies tracked by Coinmarketcap.com recorded declines over the past 24 hours. The total market capitalization of virtual currencies dropped to $192 billion from a peak of about $835 billion in January, erasing much of the gains seen during the speculative mania at the end of 2017.
