Cryptos aren’t doing well today and it’s thanks to several different factors. Chief among them is China cracking down on mining of the digital assets. This comes as the People’s Bank of China told financial institutions to stop facilitating transactions of cryptos.

As a result of this news, several cryptos are also taking a beating. That includes some of the biggest ones, such as Bitcoin (CCC:BTC-USD), Dogecoin (CCC:DOGE-USD), and Ethereum (CCC:ETH-USD). You can learn more about that at this link.
