Cryptocurrency events
August was a difficult month for the cryptocurrency market: bitcoin started with a 25% drop. In turn, the U.S. stock market lost $2.9 trillion, the lowest since March 2020 (due to COVID-19).
- Following the drop, Binance CEO Richard Teng said that daily net inflows to the exchange totaled $1.2 billion, one of the highest in 2024.
- The buying strength was shown by long-term BTC holders, who continued to build up their holdings at a record pace, purchasing 404,448 bitcoins worth $23 billion over the month.
- The market crash caused the Fear and Greed Index to drop 17 points.
- American financial conglomerate Morgan Stanley began optionally offering its clients investments in Bitcoin ETFs.
- Spot market trading of the TON token became available on the Binance exchange.
- Inflation fell to 2.9%, which is less than expected. The previous value was 3.0%. The market reacted with growth.
- And, perhaps, the main news of the last month: Pavel Durov was detained in France. He is facing several charges regarding the moderation of the Telegram site. TON collapsed by 19%.
