Dormant $26m bitcoin wallet suddenly wakes up after nearly a decade – follow live

Bitcoin’s price is continuing to fall, adding yet further losses to the market after a mini flash crash last week.

The same happened across the crypto market, with many others – including ethereum (ether), cardano (ada) and dogecoin trading down even further.

Bitcoin has dropped 3.6 per cent in the last 24 hours, and has now dropped more than 8 per cent in the last week.
