The price of bitcoin fell from Rs 47 lakh in April to Rs 22 lakh in May. Today it is around Rs 29 lakh. On July 29, the market price of bitcoin had come down to Rs 21 lakh. After the fall, investors are afraid that this fall may become heavy. Because they have a lot at stake in cryptocurrencies.

Decline of Bitcoin

Traders are trading heavily on the decline of bitcoin. When the currency falls, the crypto economy will sit. New coins are awarded to miners who create bitcoins digitally. If the currency drops drastically, they will stop making coins. Investors will also get rid of the rest of the other cryptocurrencies. Philip Gradwell of data firm Chain Analysis says the latest movement shows that the rest of the digital currency will also follow bitcoin.

Bitcoin's fall will cause a lot of damage. In this, most institutional investors, including hedge funds, university endowment funds, mutual funds, and some companies, will suffer losses. Crypto exchanges and crypto companies will suffer losses due to the collapse of digital currency.
