What began as a positive day for crypto-related equities quickly devolved into a bloodbath for the assets, with bluechip blockchain infrastruture companies and DATCos alike getting hit amid a tough day for tech stocks and crypto assets broadly.
What's the Scoop?
- Widespread Weakness: The broader crypto industry took another beating today with the stock market's S&P 500 down over 100 points. Bluechip crypto stocks experienced immense weakness, with publicly traded crypto exchange
Coinbase (COIN) falling over 7% on the day and crypto asset manager 
Galaxy (GLXY) sliding 20%. - DAT Destruction: Crypto's digital asset treasuries (DATs) have offered even greater volatility to crypto market moves, with ETH-heavy BitMine (BMNR) and BTC-focused Strategy (MSTR) falling nearly 10% intraday amid news of multi-billion dollar unrealized losses for both companies.
- Tokens Tumble: Despite the relatively modest 3% drop experienced by the total crypto industry market capitalization (TOTAL), losses in BTC and notable altcoin majors ETH and SOL were amplified, registering 4%+ daily drawdowns.
MicroStrategy’s average cost basis is $76,052.
