Bitcoin steadied on Tuesday after earlier hitting a new 18-month low, as major crypto lender Celsius Network's freezing of withdrawals and the prospect of sharp US interest rate rises shook the volatile asset class.
Bitcoin clawed its way to positive territory after falling as much as 7.3 percent to Sh2.4 million ($20,816), its lowest since Dec. 2020. It was last up 0.2 percent at Sh2.6 million ($22,487).
