HUGE shake up on the Ethereum side of things this morning when the beloved cryptocurrency fell over 90% in a matter of minutes to prices as low as $13.

It's a sad day for hundreds of traders. Although Ethereum recovered in a matter of minutes, the damage caused is nearly irreversible. Many uneducated individuals utilize the margin trading in GDAX despite the agreement it is only designed for individuals with a surplus of millions of dollars. The flash crash this morning caused investors to lose entire positions when their stop orders were reached within a matter of minutes.

The potential culprits causing the crash are as follows:

1. ICO's generated tons of ETH revenues for new companies, companies dumped.
2. Someone sold 3M worth at once, causing panic.
3. GDAX/Coinbase crashed.

The question that comes next: Did this damage the public's confidence in the cryptocurrency?

Time will tell. Until then, learn about the risks you expose yourself to, my friends.
