Cryptocurrencies have lost value in anticipation of a decision from the US regulator on exchange-traded funds based on ether. Bitcoin fell below $68,000, ETH - to $3,700. The downturn affected other digital assets as well.

Speculation raises the possibility that the decline was caused by the sale of 6,968 ETH worth $27.4 million by trading firm Symbolic Capital Partner.

Also, the rise in the dollar after the publication of the PMI report showing the growth of the American economy could accelerate the fall in prices for cryptocurrencies.
