Other cryptocurrencies were also affected, with some losing as much as 50% in the same period.

Interestingly, these issues have not stopped people from maintaining faith in the industry. Top celebrities and sports personalities have continued to support the crypto space, especially in the revolutionary non-fungible token (NFT) industry.
