Bitcoin prices fell below $500 on 14 August after the US consumer watchdog warned people about the potential dangers with the bitcoin ecosystem, which it labelled as a virtual 'Wild West.'

Bitcoin is trading down 7.51% at $503.66 as at 9:45 am GMT, according to CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index.

Bitcoin earlier opened at $544.57 and fell to as low as $499.89 during the day.
