Crypto companies all felt pain Monday morning, though the stock market open also marked a mild recovery for the crypto market broadly.
Crypto stocks tanked at Monday’s U.S. market open following a disastrous crypto market crash late Sunday.
Shares in MicroStrategy (MSTR), the world’s largest corporate owner of Bitcoin, now trade for $1,212 – 16% down from Friday’s close.
- Meanwhile, Coinbase (COIN) – the largest and only publicly traded cryptocurrency exchange in the United States – trades at $181, down 11% since Friday.
- As for Bitcoin mining firms, the Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners ETF (WGMI) sank by 10.8% since Friday to $16.50 per share.
- CleanSpark (CLSK), one of the best-performing mining stocks this year, now trades for $11.29, meaning its shares are up just 3.77% since January 1.
- Some of the worst hit stocks are MicroStrategy ‘copycats’ – firms that have grown popular as BTC proxies after making Bitcoin a reserve asset on their balance sheet.
- DeFi Technologies (DEFTF), the Canadian fintech firm, is down 24% from Friday’s close to just $1.14. Metaplanet, which has described itself as the ‘MicroStrategy of Japan,’is down to 670 JPY from 820 JPY last week.
- Though all such stocks have undoubtedly dropped, they all mildly recovered from their immediate opening prices as crypto experienced a mild recovery at the time.
- Both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have risen 6.8% over the past hour to $53,000 and $2,370 respectively.
