Bitcoin Price in the Red for Fifth Straight Day

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is trading down for a fifth straight day on Monday, the longest run since falling over six consecutive days in August last year. Bitcoin began to fall on Thursday after posting an upward trajectory in January, when it gained 40%, according to data from TradingView. Monday’s drop comes as Wall Street equity futures and European stocks dipped following Friday’s unexpectedly strong jobs report from the U.S. The rest of the crypto market was also trading in the red on Monday.
