It\u2019s safe to say that the cryptocurrency markets have seen better days as bitcoin led the way toward another substantial crash on Thursday afternoon that culminated hours ago with new multi-month lows.<\/p>\n
Ripple\u2019s cross-border token is no exception, as the asset dumped to $1.70 for the first time since the early October massacre, when it dipped below $1.60 on most exchanges and even beneath $1.00 on a few.<\/p>\n
