The answer should be Bitcoin or Ether, but no. As we all know, and we have been reporting constantly, the price of Bitcoin has dropped in January for almost 30%, which means that its market capitalization has suffered a lot. But the situation was like this not only in case of BTC, but also other cryptocurrencies.
