Similarly, crypto exchange giant Coinbase saw its share price fall by 8% to $59.47.Even now, four months later, businesses of all sizes in the cryptocurrency industry are suffering under the weight of the market and the stigma of being linked to Sam Bankman-Fried’s doomed crypto behemoth, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/tag/ftx/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">FTX</a>. Before FTX’s cryptocurrency exchange was even established in 2018, Silvergate was already receiving commerce through FTX’s trading arm, Alameda Research.
