“The bullish market for two weeks has suddenly seen corrections from three days. The event got triggered by Twitter CFO Mr. Ned commenting that it no more looks safe to continue investing in crypto. During bull markets, the prices increase and sometimes this adds instability till it finds the trigger and it seems that is what just happened. On the other side, the crypto markets are slowly growing big towards becoming immune from influencers,” said Sathvik Vishwanath, co-founder, and CEO of Unocoin.

Meanwhile, dogecoin price plunged over 5% to $0.22 whereas Shiba Inu also crashed 10% to $0.000043. The performance of other cryptocurrencies like Litecoin, XRP, Polkadot, Uniswap, Stellar, Cardano, Solana also were trading with cuts over the last 24 hours
