Bitcoin has undergone a strong drop since the highs seen yesterday. The price of the leading cryptocurrency fell from its highs of $13,850 to lows around $12,900.<\/p>\n
This drop was seemingly a result of the drop in the U.S. stock market. The Dow Jones and the S&P 500 have dropped the largest they have in months, plunging 3% lower amid some uncertainty about fiscal stimulus and the upcoming election.<\/p>\n
