Why Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana Are Plummeting Today

Why Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana Are Plummeting Today

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), and Solana's (CRYPTO: SOL) respective tokens were down roughly 5.7%, 6.8%, and 8.9% over the previous 24 hours of trading as of 4:30 p.m. E.T.

Investor appetite for risk is vacillating as we move toward the end of the year.
