Has Bitcoin been hit by regulations, why the Fall?
Bitcoin is down 8% this week continuing a trend of an almost 20% drop over the last month.

Gox liquidation is over for 2018, and the impending launch of Coinbase custody which is expected to draw institutional investors to the cryptocurrency markets. (Forbes, 2018).
