Cryptocurrency Prices Drop on June 15th: BTC Holds at $21,000; ETH, SOL Register

The value of one BTC has dropped to roughly $21,219 at the time of writing. Large-cap digital assets show losses on a daily and weekly basis in the current market.

On the 15th of June, the whole cryptocurrency market was still below $1 trillion, and bears appear to be resolute in their efforts to push prices lower. Investors’ willingness to take risks has dwindled as a result of recent market declines and expectations that the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates. Leading cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum saw their prices plummet to new yearly lows as a result of the shock. As of the time of writing, the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies was $935 billion, down 3.68 percent from the previous day.

An uneasy start to the week has been reported by Atato Chief Marketing Officer Charles Tan, who claims that many of the top cryptocurrencies have suffered losses. This past day, the whole cryptocurrency market capitalization was just below $1 trillion, with an aggregate cryptocurrency volume of $151 billion. By suspending essential services like withdrawal, Tan claims the major cryptocurrency lending network triggered fear in the market.
