You Won’t Believe What Happened to Bitcoin Today: It Fell! Shocking, Right?

Ah, the CoinDesk 20. The noble index that rises and falls like a drunken goose at a wedding. And guess what? Today, it’s leaning a little too far to the “fall” side. Not that it’s a big surprise. The CoinDesk 20 Index, for those of you who haven’t been keeping up, is currently trading at 2988.69, which is down by 1.4% (-41.38) since 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday. A heart-stopping plunge! 🥳

And here’s the real kicker: None of the 20 assets are trading higher. Yep, they’re all down. All of them. Every single one. Someone call the asset ambulance!

Now, onto the big winners of the day (drumroll, please): BTC (-0.2%) and LTC (-0.4%). Yep, they’re the “leaders” in this race to the bottom. 🏁

As for the laggards, well, you can’t win ’em all. SUI is down by a shocking 4.4%, and AAVE is trailing close behind at -3.9%. Someone get these two some motivational speeches or at least a comforting cup of tea. ☕

The CoinDesk 20, just in case you needed reminding, is a broad-based index that’s traded on platforms all around the globe. So, wherever you are, it’s probably making your portfolio look a little… *less* shiny. But hey, look on the bright side: it could be worse. You could have invested in something *really* bad. 🤷‍♂️
