To buttress its position, it cited the crash of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Cardano (ADA), and XRP (XRP) which are all down by over 50% compared to their peak.
Furthermore, the Central Bank also referenced the collapse of the Terra-Luna ecosystem which saw firms with massive exposure suffer a liquidity crisis eventually leading to the bankruptcy of some of these firms.
