Bitcoin drops under December lows

Bitcoin slumped to the lowest level since its December flash crash as growing expectations of rising borrowing rates weighs on some of the best-performing assets over the past few years.

The largest cryptocurrency by market value dropped to as low as $42,505 in early Asia trading Thursday.

That pushed the price to the lowest since it touched $42,296 during a weekend crash at the start of last month.

Bitcoin has surged by about 500% since the end of 2019 in the wake of stimulus measures put in place during the Covid-19 pandemic.
