Crypto AM Daily - a roundup of today's market news

The majority of cryptocurrencies have opened in the red for the second consecutive day.

Bitcoin is down by more than 4%, trading below $20,000 at $19,728. Ethereum is also feeling the squeeze, trading below $1,500 for the first time this month.

The original smart contracts cryptocurrency is changing hands for $1,486 at the time of writing. Chainlink is one of the few cryptocurrencies bucking the red candles this morning, trading up 6.4% on the day and 9.2% over the last week. 

Experts say growing tensions in the crypto industry, along with continuing macro pressures, may be behind the bearish sentiment in crypto markets.

Blockchain crime doesn’t pay…

So is on chain crime! Fun!
