Crypto carnage

A massive sell-off in cryptocurrencies wiped over $200 billion of wealth from the market in just 24 hours, according to estimates from price-tracking website CoinMarketCap.

The broad plunge in the crypto complex, driven by the collapse of the TerraUSD stablecoin, hit major tokens hard. Bitcoin plunged by as much as 10% in the last day to its lowest level since Dec. 2020, while Ethereum dropped as much as 16%.
 
And still well above 2018's ATH. If you bought in 2017 you're still well up.
 
Means nothing. Today its worth 200 Billion. Tomorrow 200 thousand, next week 200 Trillion.

One of the most successful schemes out there.
 
I see Terra Luna is even worth 2c to the market... Eish this morning is was still trading at R3 to 1.
