The crypto winter is in full effect, with the market for digital currencies deteriorating over the past month and exchange platforms that facilitate transactions on the blockchain facing the brunt of the damage.
Alex Mashinsky, head of crypto loan company, Celsius, is feeling the added heat as rumors of bankruptcy, flight risks, and a still-frozen platform loom over the company.
