Plus: Physicists engineer an atom laser that can stay on forever. Jun 20, 2022 [Blueprint]( The crypto market experienced a second crash in 2022, dropping to less than one-third of its November 2021 valuation. But investor positions seem limited to either buying the dip at the current Bitcoin price or investing in another asset altogether. Elon Musk seems to be in the first group, according to his latest tweets about Dogecoin, where he said he’ll continue to support Dogecoin — even if it means buying the dip.

Last week, the industry saw one of its worst days ever, with cryptocurrency companies bracing themselves for the impact of a freeze in money flow in the near future. Following that, the Bitcoin valuation sank further and priced below $20,000, its worst in 18 months.
