Ethereum Plunges Under $600 as Altcoins Crash
Ethereum has plunged lower over the past day as a result of strong selling pressure in the altcoin market. It began with XRP, which began to drag lower after it was revealed that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would be suing the Ripple company.
ETH now trades for $590 but traded as low as $550 just 30 minutes ago on leading centralized exchanges. The market moved so fast that the cryptocurrency did not reach that level on decentralized exchanges.
