Zinger Key Points
  • Bitcoin is down 1.4% in the last 24 hours after dropping more than 3% Wednesday.
  • Let’s take a peek at some of the other top cryptos.

The worldwide cryptocurrency market capitalization is at $900.6 billion Thursday, down from $926.6 billion on Wednesday afternoon.

Thursday’s drama surrounds cryptocurrency trading firm and liquidity provider 8 Blocks Capital and its issue with Three Arrows Capital (3AC).

Danny Yuan, CEO of 8 Blocks, took to Twitter Inc TWTR on Wednesday evening to publicly allege that 3AC essentially stole $1 million of 8 Block funds to curb its own insolvency.

“Fast forward to 24 hours ago, our funds monitoring script noticed that ~1m was missing from our accounts with them. We reached out to @KyleLDavies, the Ops team on Telegram about the missing funds- no replies. We tried calling them- they were online and they didn't pick up.”
