It's getting up. Crash was because of halving bug on websites + DDOS.  Cheesy

What bug ,who was DDOSed?

Markets/exchanges, halvening site, chart sites
You want to say that the price dropped because bitcoinwisdom went down???

bitcoinwisdom crashed for me too.

Btw, main reason was halvening bug on sites (wrong reward number) and people panicked that bitcoin got broken or something. Just look around on news, it's everywhere.

The $40 drop was at block #419997. ie, before the bugs were even seen by anyone, not to mention blockchain.info bug != bitcoin bug.
one other thing, the negative number you saw was the fees. The reward bug showed 16.66666666 for the first blocks after halving. Blockexplorer showed the correct reward from block 420k. No one panicked from this.

Edit: No one gives a flying F about bitcoin wisdom. Them going down and gdax going down doesn't matter
