Cryptobellum Notebook is a bi-weekly, notebook-style, qualitative summary of the top-ranked 20 cryptocurrencies. Cryptobellum is transforming the way crypto enthusiasts consume cryptocurrency news and blockchain-related developments. The crypto space is saturated with quantitative measurements, and Cryptobellum Notebook fills the gap of much-needed, concise qualitative information.
1. Bitcoin
Bitcoin hit its lowest level in over a year, dropping below the $5,000 mark. I think there’s a real possibility it could drop below $1,000.
2. XRP
Ripple added the 5th-largest Southeast Asian bank, CIMB Group, to its network of banks. Ripple has been trading in the green and seems almost immune to the current bear market, a bear market so bad, it’s almost as if Goldilocks overdosed on Ambien.
3. Ethereum
Ethereum has been subject to the same price plunge as other major cryptocurrencies, reaching its lowest level since July 2017 with its price falling below $155.
4. Stellar
Stellar has managed to overtake Bitcoin Cash’s marketcap.

The crypto war involving Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Cash S.V. saw Bitcoin Cash losing its fourth-place spot to Stellar.

EOS experienced over a 10% price decline since the last publication of Cryptobellum Notebook.

Unsurprisingly, Monero reached an all-time low of the year following suit with other major cryptocurrencies.
