Earlier Monday morning put an end to the relative stability observed in the cryptocurrency market over the weekend. The aggregate capitalization of the segment in a few hours fell from $ 130 billion to $ 126 billion.
Bitcoin, which until this time was trading around $ 3,850, lost more than 2% of its value.
Ethereum fell 5% below $ 130, despite the positive development in the cryptocurrency network against the background of the successful hard fork of Constantinople.
The block time in its network is currently less than 13 seconds, while before the update this figure rose to 21 seconds as a result of the activation of the complexity bomb. However, it will not disturb the users of the second largest cryptocurrency over the coming year.
Other major assets of the crypto market did not stand aside and lost an average of 2-5%.
Ravencoin stands out against the general background, although its rate has declined in the last hours, it remains 30% higher than the initial values in the daily segment.
At the time of publication, the situation began to be corrected in the Basic Attention Token market, which won 8% against the background of the announcement of the Binance exchange about adding a BAT / USDT trading pair.
Trading volumes in the segment as a whole at the same time remain at a relatively high level and amount to about $ 25 billion in 24 hours.
