    A The reasons for the sudden fall of Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Bitcoin are not clear, but it has Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C sure fired up the competition between Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D the other rival currencies. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E N o error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The correct preposition used here should be ‘among’.We use between to refer to two things which are clearly separated while we use among to talk about things which are not clearly separated because they are part of a group or crowd or mass of objects. In this sentence the comparison between Bitcoin and other currencies is shown, hence being a particular type of object, ‘among’ is correct instead of ‘between’.
