Death Spiral for Crypto? Binance’s Volumes in 2022 Will Be the Same as $34 Trillion in 2021

Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance, said that trades on the exchange so far in 2022 were about the same as the $34 trillion in 2021.

Could it be that we’ve entered a crypto-death spiral? Not likely; both the recovery and the volume show the opposite.
Bitcoin and Ether, the two most important cryptocurrencies on the market, have climbed back up in price early on Sunday after breaking through a few key price levels recently.

According to a report from CoinDesk, Bitcoin’s value has fallen to its lowest level since late 2020 as evidence of a developing financial crisis in the crypto industry continues to pile up.

This is the 12th day in a row that the largest digital token by market value has fallen by more than 15 percent, according to statistics from Bloomberg.

But it’s still just the biggest drop since Monday. Some of those losses were made up for, and the currency was last traded at $19,075 early Sunday morning.
