Why Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin Dropped Today

The value of major cryptocurrencies fell on Thursday as the stock market dropped and investors worried about inflation and the continuing Russian invasion of Ukraine. This follows a day when prices shot higher after President Joe Biden signed an executive order to study digital assets and investors hoped U.S. regulators would finally define rules for cryptocurrencies.
