Web traffic to crypto exchanges is experiencing a gradual dip as the markets are still in bear territory. Holders’ portfolio is down due to repeated corrections and retail investors are not pouring money for fear of the markets crashing. Amid the bearish conditions, Binance and other crypto exchanges have taken a beating as users initiating transactions declined rapidly.
Trading platforms’ revenues are bleeding forcing them to cut down on staff to stay afloat during this turbulent period. Here’s a full list of exchanges that have fired staff during the ongoing 2022 bear markets.
