(REUTERS) 1 min read . Updated: 21 Oct 2021, 09:54 PM IST Bloomberg The price of Bitcoin appeared to rapidly — and only temporarily — plunge about 87% on Binance’s U.S. exchange Thursday morning, sinking to as low as $8,200 from around $65,000. The price did nothing like that on other venues, and on Binance the level almost immediately snapped back to where it had been. The plunge occurred at 7:34 a.m. New York time, according to Binance’s website. Volume on the exchange in that minute was 592.8 Bitcoins, which are worth just shy of $40 million at current prevailing prices. Mistakes like this happen throughout finance when, for instance, traders mess up details of their intended trades, entering the wrong price or order size. An erroneously large trade, as one example, can overwhelm an exchange’s order book, leading to a quick and massive decline. The entire U.S. stock market famously flash crashed back in May 2010, though equities have mostly avoided trouble since that era. This is the latest in a string of recent high-profile trading problems in crypto. Synthetify, a new decentralized exchange, was forced to shut down for a while earlier this month shortly after its debut because of bad data provided by the Pyth Network, a price feed backed by some of the world’s most well-known trading and exchange firms. Pyth malfunctioned another time in September, erroneously making it appear that Bitcoin had crashed 90%.

Usually, when you buy stocks or cryptocurrency, the price chart is a valuable tool in your analysis. However, the combination of Safemoon’s short price history and low liquidity means that the price chart doesn’t tell us as much as it would with other cryptos. The huge spikes in April and May have been followed by a sustained decline, which has led the price to where it is right now.

Very generously our tweeter credits another crypto fanatic for the remarkable analysis, who had drawn up his own chart just days earlier:
Of course, crypto is notoriously volatile. The last time Bitcoin reached these levels, it fell back several thousand dollars, and it’s undergone multiple corrections that take it down by half or more. Other coins are even more volatile – the memecoins bounce back and forth wildly at times – and scams and hacks occur with some frequency.
The next Safemoon "EverGrow Coin" is already marking its footprints and breaking many records. EverGrow is the first yield generating a token that offers rewards in BUSD. What's more, unlike other crypto projects, EverGrow Coin is already excelling in different fields, and it has already disrupted the market with its top-notch token distribution strategy.
One of the most appealing factors is that Safemoon rewards people who hold the token by distributing funds that the platform receives from the people who sell the token. In addition, Safemoon has recently released its own wallet on Google Play. Many investors believe this is a sign that the company are in the growth phase, with more announcements in due course.
As long as prices avoid closing below this barrier, odds favor a resumption of the uptrend toward a new all-time high at $4,574.

Holders of the meme tokens are not giggling anymore. Shiba Inu promised to deliver a whole world of DeFi popularity, but its bark has largely remained worse than its bite. It might be time to take whatever gains you have and get out of this digital currency before people get tired of the dog-themed crypto.
The phenomenon has occurred more frequently in recent days, with Bitstamp also seeing freak order-book events.
