According to Kunji, there were some major issues also in the crypto industry. The Terra Luna collapse was an immense setback for the industry. Its downfall was followed by other bankruptcies.

While describing other failures such as the FTX crypto exchange meltdown, it said, “Unfortunately, the FTX collapse and other events led the year 2022 to go down as one of the worst years for crypto investors.” It noted that the FTX collapse was the worst since the industry began with the arrival of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) in 2009. 

The study also noted that 2022 saw the second worst single-year performance for Bitcoin since 2011 in terms of both year-over-year (-64 percent) and decline from an all-time high (-74 percent).
