Over the past 24 hours, over $1 billion worth of crypto futures were liquidated as the market decline intensified on Sunday and continued into Monday.
The crypto market saw a significant drop in value as investors continued to abandon high-risk assets.
Richard Teng, the CEO of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance shared some positive insight into the current downturn and gave investors hope.
He stated that the recent sharp drops in crypto and equity prices are influenced by macroeconomic factors and that they do not believe it’s indicative of a long-term negative trend.
Teng added that with potential Fed rate cuts and geopolitical volatility, there’s still significant potential for market fluctuations.
