The value of the most popular cryptocurrency collapsed again on Monday, reaching $37,400. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have been under pressure lately mainly due to the situation around Ukraine. However, the impetus for a sharp drop in the exchange rate today was the news of an attack on the OpenSea NFT exchange, as a result of which attackers stole hundreds of non-interchangeable tokens with a total value of more than $1.7 million. However, the OpenSea platform itself stated that it was not hacked, and users were attacked by scammers and gave them their tokens themselves. «As far as we can tell, this is a phishing attack. We don't think it's related to the OpenSea website,» OpenSea Executive Director Devin Finzer said. As a result of today's collapse in prices, the capitalization of the cryptocurrency market fell by about $70 billion per day. During the day, the value of bitcoin recovered somewhat – to the level of $39200. Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency by capitalization in the world, dropped by about 3% to $2,666. Other popular digital currencies, such as BNB, XRP and Cardano, lost about 5% in price on average.
