The corrective nature of this morning's session is reflected across the wider crypto market and equities, with the Nasdaq100 and S&P500 indices trading 0.82% and 0.68% lower respectively.
Friday's market lull comes after strong performance in equities since July 17, with the Nasdaq rising by 20.88% during that time.
