Over $100 billion was wiped from the crypto market in the past 24 hours as Bitcoin slipped below $89,000.
According to CoinGecko data , the total market capitalization decreased from approximately $3.2 trillion to $3.1 trillion over the same period. Bitcoin was trading near $89,400 at the time of press, down about 3% on the day.
