On the other hand, Ether, the coin linked to the ethereum blockchain and the second largest cryptocurrency, also plunged by more than 4% to $1,208.

“Most cryptocurrencies fell after Genesis suspended the withdrawals. Bitcoin is currently trading below the $16,700 level. Even though BTC rose on Tuesday, reacting to the latest inflation news, it could not sustain the gains. If BTC sustains below the $17,622 level, it may increase the prospect of a break below the $15,588 zone. On the other hand, Ethereum has declined by 3% in the past 24 hours. It suggests the strength of the sellers in the market. If the selling pressure intensifies, we may see ETH drop to $1,100 level. To gain the upper hand, buyers must push the price above the $1,300 level,” said Edul Patel, CEO and Co-founder, Mudrex.

Meanwhile, dogecoin price today was trading about 2% lower at $0.08 whereas Shiba Inu was also down a per cent to $0.000009. Other crypto prices’ today performance also declined as Binance USD, Avalanche, Solana, Tether, XRP, Terra, Tron, Litecoin, ApeCoin, Polygon, Cardano, Stellar, Chainlink, Uniswap, Polkadot prices were trading with cuts over the last 24 hours.
