Bitcoin and Ripple Latest
Bitcoin and Ripple - the two largest coins by market capitalization – still languish near their multi-month lows as the expected ‘buy the dip’ crowd remain noticeable by the absence. Over the last few months, most sharp falls in the cryptocurrency market have been followed by a reasonable rebound – dip buyers – before the market stabilized and moved lower again.
