Cryptocurrency giants Bitcoin and Ethereum have plummeted in value in what investors are calling a crypto winter.
Crypto lending firm Celsius Network has filed for bankruptcy, cryptocurrencies TerraUSD and Luna have imploded costing investors an estimated $40bn, and many lesser-known crypto tokens have sunk without trace.
Among those getting the blame from shattered savers are the film and sports stars who went online to hype what turned out to be disastrous virtual assets.
