Other altcoins followed suit with losses ranging from 5% to even more than 20% in some cases. There were three main reasons for the decline, which are detailed below.<\/p>\n<p>Two days before, a huge Bitcoin \u2018hodler\u2019 transferred nearly 8,000 Bitcoins from the wallet to the cryptocurrency exchange Huobi.<\/p>\n<p>The account held as much as 94,000 BTC, before a considerable was quantity to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walletexplorer.com\/wallet\/01118876e81f14f6?from_address=1KAt6STtisWMMVo5XGdos9P7DBNNsFfjx7\">1KAt6STtisWMMVo5XGdos9P7DBNNsFfjx7 <\/a>(Huobi).

CFTC and CME wants complete details of account holders, including trading activity to identify whether any of the traders are involved in spoofing, wash trading, or any other illegal activities. The cryptocurrency exchanges have shared only a limited data so far.<\/p>\n<p>Thirdly, South Korean exchange Coinrail was hacked yesterday. The cryptocurrency exchange confirmed the incident through a tweet and has also mentioned that it had lost a considerable portion of altcoins such as PundiX (NPXS), etc.<br \/>\n<center><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"ko\">\ud574\ud0b9\uacf5\uaca9\uc2dc\ub3c4\ub85c \uc778\ud55c \uc2dc\uc2a4\ud15c \uc810\uac80\uc911\uc785\ub2c8\ub2e4. \uc77c\ubd80\ucf54\uc778(\ud380\ub514\uc5d1\uc2a4,NPXS)\uc774 \ud655\uc778\ub418\uc5c8\uc73c\uba70 \ucd94\uac00\uc801\uc778 \ucf54\uc778\ud53c\ud574\uac00 \uc788\ub294\uc9c0 \uc5ec\ubd80\ub97c \ud655\uc778\uc911\uc785\ub2c8\ub2e4. \ucd94\ud6c4 \uc790\uc138\ud55c \uc0ac\ud56d\uc740 \uc7ac\uacf5\uc9c0\ud558\uaca0\uc2b5\ub2c8\ub2e4 \/ There has been an cyber intrusion in our system.
