Crypto market goes down following Bitcoin 10% crash

比特币暴跌 10% 后加密货币市场下跌

Over the past 24 hours, the world’s primary cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, has lost almost 10.3%, falling from the $64,600 zone to the $57,650 area, where it is changing hands at the time of writing this article.

在过去 24 小时内，世界主要加密货币比特币下跌了近 10.3%，从 64,600 美元区域跌至 57,650 美元区域，在撰写本文时比特币正在易手。

Following Bitcoin, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization value, Ethereum, has plunged by more than 11%. It is trading at $2,874 after losing the $3,243 level on Tuesday.

继比特币之后，市值第二大加密货币以太坊暴跌超过11%。周二跌破 3,243 美元后，目前交易价格为 2,874 美元。

Dogecoin has fallen by nearly 15% as it plunged from $0.1458 to the $0.1242 level, where it is sitting now.

狗狗币已下跌近 15%，从 0.1458 美元暴跌至目前的 0.1242 美元水平。

Among the major reasons for the plunge is believed to be the Binance founder CZ getting sentenced to four months in prison for violating the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and on charges of money laundering on Binance. Besides, the jobs report came out worse than expected, and the Bitcoin-Ethereum ETFs in Hong Kong failed to meet the expectations of traders as the former were expected to surpass the spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US on their first trading day.

据信，币安创始人 CZ 因违反银行保密法（BSA）和币安洗钱罪被判处四个月监禁。此外，就业报告差于预期，香港比特币以太坊ETF未能达到交易者的预期，预计香港比特币以太坊ETF首个交易日将超越美国现货比特币ETF。

In reality, the Hong Kong ETFs managed to score $12.4 million in trading and $141 million in inflows into Bitcoin and partly into Ethereum. When the US spot ETFs launched, their figures surpassed those massively with $740 million in assets and $4.6 billion in trading volume.

事实上，香港 ETF 的交易额达到了 1240 万美元，比特币和以太坊的资金流入达到了 1.41 亿美元。当美国现货 ETF 推出时，其资产规模和交易量分别为 7.4 亿美元和 46 亿美元，远远超过了其他市场。
