The crypto world is under attack once again, but this is not a new topic in the ears of the crypto community. In detail, the Bank of England’s deputy governor for financial stability, Sir Jon Cunliffe, has alerted the public about the possibility of the price of cryptocurrencies falling.

Sir Jon Cunliffe explained:

He added that he worried about the risk that the crypto assets might bring if it integrates into the economy’s financial system. “The point, I think, at which one worries is when it becomes integrated into the financial system — when a big price correction could really affect other markets and affect established financial market players, he said.”

In other news, politicians in America also stressed their opinion about the rising market of cryptocurrency. To be specific, Senator Elizabeth Warren of the United States of America explained that cryptocurrency could harm consumers and the economy in a tweet post.
