Saxo Bank skriver om den seneste nedtur for Bitcoin og rygterne om Teslas Bitcoin-beholdning.
Market Quick Take
Bitcoin (BITCOIN_XBTE:xome) and Ethereum (ETHEREUM_XBTE:xome).
Bitcoin tumbled sharply to a new three-month low at the weekend after Elon Musk seemed to indicate that Tesla had sold its Bitcoin holdings, a rumor he explicitly denied in a tweet Monday morning, which saw the price recovering.
As well, at the weekend, reports of the Bitcoin ransom payment paid to hacking outfit DarkSide being seized (and its involvement in the whole episode) might be considered bad PR.
Bitcoin traded overnight to almost exactly its major high from early January near 42k.
Most of the entire crypto space suffered a setback at the weekend, as Ethereum sold off to 3,127 before bouncing overnight, at the trough of the sell-off representing a draw-down of over 28%.
