The latest slump coincided with massive losses in the price of the overall cryptocurrency market, with the majority of the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap seeing their prices fall as well.
Bitcoin SV was the biggest loser in the top 10, with its price falling nearly 25 percent on the day, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
The overall crypto market shed some $80 billion over the past 24 hours.
This is the second day in a row that bitcoin’s price has slumped, after the frenzy which coincided yesterday with Coinbase’s brief outage. At the time, bitcoin’s price fell more than $1,700 in 15 minutes.
