ETC Group on crypto's 'scary ride' with the commodity 'behaving a lot like a risk asset'

ETC Group on crypto's 'scary ride' with the commodity 'behaving a lot like a risk asset'

ETC Group's Bradley Duke speaks to Proactive London about crypto's 'scary ride' lately.

He says it's still 'a new world' and the story is changing. Bitcoin has dropped from nearly $69,900 in November to $35,000 now as investors rush away from risky and speculative assets - which Duke says is strange because it's now 'behaving a lot like a risk asset'.

Over the weekend, Bitcoin fell 7.2%, trading as low as $34,042 on Saturday, before rising back up again above the $35,000 mark. During the same period, Ethereum also dropped 12%, while Cardano and Solana dipped nearly 17%.
