Bitcoin Crash Brings Down Crypto Market Over The Weekend

 

 

 

       


The fall of the crypto market started when Elon Musk made a tweet declaring that Telsa has stopped accepting Bitcoin payments, citing the environmental concerns of Bitcoin. Overnight, the price of Bitcoin fell down 17 per cent. It's imperative to understand that the price of Bitcoin drives the whole crypto market. When Bitcoin falls significantly, it causes panic selling among crypto investors as they sell their Altcoins. Elon Musk didn't stop there, he continued to attack Bitcoin, calling it 'centralised' in another one of his tweets. As the negative tweets from Elon continued, the Bitcoin kept crashing. 


At the time of writing this article, the Bitcoin price stands at $45,191, almost a 28 per cent drop from the April peak price of $64,000. Ethereum is down by $500 from a peak price of more than $4000 to $3,500. Dogecoin is down from its peak price of $0.71 cents to hovering around $0.51 cents. Other major coins have also seen a significant fall in their prices.
