Bitcoin, the world’s most popular cryptocurrency, was just hovering above $47,100 down nearly 4 per cent at around 2 pm. Bitcoin’s market capitalisation fell below $900 billion as investors engaged in profit booking. The trade volume over the past 24 hours stood at $1.74 billion.

Ether, the native token on the Ethereum platform, also fell over five per cent and was trading just below $3,800. Ethereum’s market capitalisation has fallen to $452 billion and the 24-hour trade volume has jumped to 2.5 billion.

Prices of all other popular cryptocurrencies also dipped sharply in the wake of higher profit booking amid increased uncertainty among investors.
