Probably just one unconfirmed tweet was enough to send a bitcoin to $ 51,000 in one hour, and ethereum fell below $ 2,000 for a while and wiped about $ 290 billion from the cryptocurrency market at one point.
Tweet, which supported the current decline in cryptocurrencies, posted an FXHedge account on Twitter. The unconfirmed report states that the US Treasury Department plans to charge several financial institutions with money laundering using cryptocurrencies.
