Bitcoin is a distributed peer-to-peer digital currency that can be transferred instantly and securely between any two people in the world. It runs on a blockchain, or a ledger logging transactions distributed across a network of thousands of computers. Bitcoin remains the world’s largest and most popular cryptocurrency. At one point last year, it had a market cap of well over $1 trillion. However, it has not been immune to market weaknesses lately.
It’s not just Bitcoin that’s been feeling downward pressure. Ethereum has also experienced a tremendous decline. Its market cap dropped by 9.5% in the past seven days to $177.11 billion.
