The Impact Of The Decreased Market Capitalization On Other Crypto Tokens

Bitcoin has witnessed a major drop as its price went below 27000$. The token is however slowly recovering although the support levels being met are not promising any significant profits.

The Ether token has been hit pretty hard as well with the value going below 1700$. An Ethereum Whale has been spotted by Lookonchain after selling Ether that amounts to up to 41 Million Dollars. According to sources, this helped the whale avoid a possible loss of 5 million dollars.

The decreased market capitalization value was 1.1 Billion. Investors are actively anticipating recovery as they struggle to make the most of the market.
