Bitcoin is down 40% from December highs
by almost 20% per day The bitcoin exchange rate fell - to a minimum since the beginning of December last year, below $12,000. The reason for the fall is not only bad news from Asian regulators, but also the disappointment of small investors who bought bitcoin at its peak in anticipation of quick earnings. In December, against the backdrop of the launch of cryptocurrency futures , bitcoin rose to $20,000. Thus, the drop for the month from the December highs was about 40%.
