2022 was a remarkable year in the crypto world. Crypto investors/traders saw the domino effect that the collapse of FTX exchange caused in the crypto space.
We didn’t only see the price of Bitcoin drop below $16K, it was unable to go beyond $17K as it ended the year at $16,547.50, according to the historical data on CoinMarketCap.
Though FXT collapsed in November, the spillover effect also saw other crypto exchanges that relied on Bankman-Fried’s once-bubbling FTX filing for bankruptcy.
Apart from the multiple dramas that engulf the crypto space, that didn’t stop major Bitcoin events that took place around the world.
Some of them include Blockchain Expo Global held in Olympia, London; Future of Crypto which was held at Pier Sixty, New York, United States.
All the same, Bitcoin price picked up from where it stopped in November starting at $17,168.00 and ending the month and the year at $16,547.50
