Bitcoin’s price was rejected at almost $66,000 yesterday, and the crash has worsened over the past few hours, with the asset dumping below $63,000.

After a calm weekend in which its price stood at around $64,000, bitcoin experienced minor positive volatility on Monday, jumping past $65,000 and tapping a multi-day peak at over $65,500.
