As we near the close of the first half of 2022, cryptocurrencies and traditional equities have two things in common: both markets have fallen from all-time highs and remain volatile.
Cryptocurrency remains a complicated "watch your money, you might lose it" type of investment, underscored by the massive collapse of Terra LUNA/USD, which lost 99.7% of its value in less than a week.
To put those losses in perspective, Terra was once a top 10 crypto by market cap, trading at all-time highs before nuking to fractions of a penny: one Terra at 52-week high (April 4, 2022): $119.18; one Terra now: $0.0001611. It is currently ranked at No. 212 on CoinMarketCap.
