As a result of the crypto lending platform BlockFi declaring bankruptcy, the price of bitcoin has increased by 1.71 percent in the previous 24 hours. The total volume of Bitcoin trades during the last 24 hours is $25,195,723,296.
Notably, bitcoin lender BlockFi filed for bankruptcy on Monday, only days after freezing withdrawals in the wake of FTX’s bankruptcy filing. The bankruptcy petition claims that the company’s heavy reliance on FTX led to a severe cash shortage.
Sam Bankman-FTX Fried’s exchange filed for bankruptcy in the United States earlier this month after a $6 billion trading withdrawal in three days and the cancellation of a rescue offer by Binance, a competing exchange. The total value of all cryptocurrencies on the market is $834.81 billion, an increase of 2.01% from the day before.
