  If you owe money and the price of cryptocurrency drops, it can have serious implications. When you borrow money to invest in crypto and the value of your investment decreases, you may end up owing more than the value of your assets. This is known as being 'underwater' or having negative equity. It can result in significant financial losses and may require you to repay the borrowed funds even if your assets are worth less than the debt.

  Yep, if the price of crypto goes down and you borrowed money to invest, you could be in trouble. Let's say you took out a loan to buy some Bitcoin, and the price drops. You still owe the full amount of the loan, but the value of your Bitcoin has decreased. So, you're left with a debt that's worth more than your assets. Not a good situation to be in, my friend.
