The price of bitcoin fell more than $1,000 in the span of about 10 minutes on the CoinDesk Bitcoin Price Index (BPI) today, just hours after the cryptocurrency set an all-time high above $11,000.
Beginning about 19:20 UTC, sell orders began piling up on exchanges in what was perhaps one of the market's most impressive successions of red candles in some time. After showing signs of stability above $10,000 at 18:30 UTC, the price hit a low of $9,290 at 19:30.
However, data shows some exchanges were more affected than others.
According to social media, the price decline coincides with reports that GDAX, the exchange offering of cryptocurrency startup Coinbase, had seen a service outage that is currently ongoing. Data from GDAX indicates the exchange hit a low of $8,593 before going offline.
Social media reports also suggest that Bitstamp and Gemini have faced outages or interruptions today, at a time that coincides with increasing mainstream interest in cryptocurrencies. According to data provider TradeBlock, GDAX, Bitstamp and Bitfinex are all currently operating unreliably.
The more than 11 percent decline marked the lowest price observed on the BPI since Nov. 26 when bitcoin hit a low of $8,757.

Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, added about 1.9 million new users in the last two months. In the same period, [Suspicious link removed], the leading digital wallet to store cryptocurrencies, saw its users grow just slightly less than that.
Many are newcomers, unaware of the risks and security holes in the complicated yet lucrative world of cryptocurrency, making them easy prey for hackers and cyberthiefs.
One common crime that's carried out on cryptocurrency investors is the phone-porting attack. Hackers snoop around social media, looking for cryptocurrency conversations in which investors post their phone and email for easy contact. Then, posing as the victim, they call up the phone provider in an attempt to fool the customer service representative into transferring the phone number to a device they control.
Once the hackers take over the phone number, they can go into the victim's cryptocurrency exchange account by resetting the password, ultimately stealing cryptocurrencies from the account. Cody Brown, a virtual reality developer, blogged about how he lost around $8,000 worth of cryptocurrencies on Coinbase in 15 minutes, triggered by a phone porting attack on his phone account.
A cellphone number is not the only point of weakness. Adam Dachis, a former writer for Lifehacker, says his Coinbase account was ransacked in May by hackers who took control of his home computer, costing him $10,000 worth of cryptocurrencies.
"Computer hacks, phishing attacks and cryptocurrency Ponzi schemes are all common types of cryptocurrency theft," said Jonathan Levin, co-founder of Chainalysis, an intelligence software firm that specializes in tracking and solving cryptocurrency crimes.

“You do not want to give Jeff Bezos a seven-year head start.”
Hear what else Buffett has to say
Here's the advice of investors and experts, edited for clarity and style:
Jonathan Levin, co-founder of Chainalysis
1. Before you open up an account on Coinbase [or other exchanges], set up an unique email that you are going to use for that account.
2. Make sure to set a really hard and long password, and you are the only one to access it from a piece of paper that you control.
Dan Romero, VP of operation at Coinbase
1. On Coinbase, turn off SMS-based two-factor authentication and account recovery for your email account. If you move to Google Authenticator but don't turn off SMS account recovery, a phone port attack can still lead to an email compromise.
2. On Coinbase, setup the Coinbase Vault and two-factor authentication for any sends off-site.
Sean Everett, VP of product management, Coinbase account was hacked by phone porting attack
1. Don't talk about cryptocurrency publicly, especially on social media.
2. Call your cellphone provider, put every level of security you possibly can, and add a passcode to it. The next level protection is to add a "do not port" SIM card to your account. That can last for a year.
3. Even though Coinbase says it takes security seriously and has system designs to protect customers, it's not a bank. Don't trust it as such.

Again bitcoin goes down due to market fluctuations. Bitcoin Cash has reached its all-time high on 12 December 2017, when one coin was worth stunning $4,100. It has since then plunged to $700. Now, this cryptocurrency once again demonstrates upward mobility. Bitcoin Gold, another offshoot of the original BTC blockchain, has been demonstrated slow yet steady growth since February 7th, almost doubling in price over the course of two weeks.
Bitcoin and bitcoin-related cryptocurrencies have all been in the green for twelve days already. Future market movement will most certainly be powered by the expectations of long-term cryptocurrency investors. Some of them have already dubbed 2018 the year when crypto will release its full potential.

When buying cryptocurrency don’t buy cryptocurrencies which are cheap in price but buy cryptocurrencies which have a huge Market Cap.
Yes! Buy Cryptocurrencies according to their Market Cap because if the coin is cheaper that doesn’t make it cheaper.
Market Cap = Total circulated coin (Number of coins in existence available to the public) + Price of Coin
Let's take real an example,
Here, I’ve taken 2 coins.
1.) Ripple
2.) Dogecoin
Now as you can see the difference between their Market Cap, Total Circulated Coins and also the price.
According to the price, Dogecoins looks cheaper well but Dogecoin has a low market cap compared to Ripple.
It also depends on the Total Circulated Coin and if Dogecoin had a price of $0.5 then it could have been competitive.
So I hope you won’t go for coins with cheaper prices instead go for coins having a good market cap and Total Circulated Coin.
If you still need some suggestions about which cryptocurrency under $1 is a good investment for 2018 then here are the coins which I would recommend.
1.) Ripple (XRP) - Currently $0.30
2.) DigiByte (DGB) Currently $0.03
3.) Dogecoin (DOGE) - Currently 0.003
4.) SiaCoin (SC) - Currently $0.01
5.) NEM (XEM) - Currently $0.20

When it comes to cryptocurrency, there are a lot of differences from one country to another regarding regulations and legislation. Which ones are the...
5 MOST CRYPTO-FRIENDLY COUNTRIES IN EUROPE
1)Switzerland
2)Denmark
3)Estonia
4)Slovenia
5)Georgia
Probably the most unexpected pick in a list of most crypto-friendly countries. But surprisingly enough, this small country in the middle of the Caucasus has a lot going for it when it comes to cryptocurrency.
In particular, it is one of the three countries with the largest amount of Bitcoin miners (among China and the U.S.), is home to one of the largest mining and blockchain solution companies: BitFury (among other big mining companies like Ambit), and generally has a very strong sense of crypto culture that is growing by the day.
ICOs and cryptocurrency startups in Georgia also enjoy the benefit of being in a Tax Free Zone, meaning, they have to deal with less bureaucracy, are exempt from taxes (as the name implies), gain further free trade opportunities and more. This incentive is huge and really helps further develop the cryptocurrency industry in Georgia.
