As the broader cryptocurrency markets have been cratering, Bitcoin has managed to retain much of its value.
These widespread declines have taken place after it was reported that South Korean authorities raided UPbit, the nation's largest digital currency exchange.

Widespread Losses
Every one of the top 25 digital currencies (ranked by total market value) was in the red at the time of this writing, according to CoinMarketCap data.
While Bitcoin had fallen 8.2% over the last 24 hours, several major cryptocurrencies had suffered losses close to twice that high.
Stellar, Cardano and EOS, for example, were all down at least 16%, additional CoinMarketCap figures show.
Ripple's XRP token and Bitcoin Cash, while not as far in the red, had dropped 12.8% and 13.8%, respectively.
