$89 Billion Wiped Off Cryptocurrency Market as Bitcoin Crashes Below $30,000 .

Bitcoin is down more than five percent, falling below $30,000 for the first time since June 22.

That’s a 50 percent plunge compared to its mid-April high of nearly $65,000.

.

As of Tuesday morning, $89 billion has been wiped off the cryptocurrency market in the span of 24 hours.

.

According to Annabelle Huang of the cryptocurrency financial service firm Amber Group, the dip is a result of a “broad sell-off in global markets.” .

Huang also cited concerns over the “quality and strength of economic recovery” as a factor in the crypto market’s dip.

.

Bitcoin’s price plunge has also caused a number of other cryptocurrencies to fall.

.

Ethereum fell over eight percent to $1,700 and XRP, BNB and ADA fell more than 10 percent each.

Vijay Ayyar of cryptocurrency exchange Luno said that Bitcoin would likely continue to fall.
