Bitcoin SV BSV/USD tumbled early on Thursday even as major coins such as Bitcoin BTC/USD and Ethereum ETH/USD clocked significant gains.
What Happened: The drop in price comes after Robinhood HOOD said support for BSV would be discontinued. Users can continue to purchase, sell, send, and hold BSV until Jan 25. Any BSV left in a Robinhood crypto account after the deadline will be sold at market value.
