The combined crypto market cap was down 0.31% and pegged at $921 billion. With the seemingly bearish trend, here is a brief rundown of altcoins entering the new week with an impressive weekly performance.
The digital currency ecosystem is currently experiencing a massive valuation plunge as the cryptocurrency industry is still trying to find a balance after the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released the inflation data in September.
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) came in at 8.2% for the past month showing the ongoing interest rate hikes, the last of which was 75 basis points, are not yielding good fruits at this time. The resultant reaction plunged the traditional market into chaos, and the resultant ripple effect was experienced in the broader digital currency ecosystem.
The combined crypto market cap was down 0.31% at the time of writing and pegged at $921 billion. With the seemingly bearish trend, here is a brief rundown of altcoins entering the new week with impressive weekly performance.
Quant (QNT)
For the second time in a row, Quant is trending as one of the top performers in the ecosystem with a 22.46% to $192.68 per data from CoinMarketCap. The coin has been on a massive uptrend for the better part of this month, and investors may need to watch well before leaping into acquiring this token moving forward. This is because a mild correction may be underway in the short term.
Huobi Token (HT)
Huobi Token is the native coin of the Huobi Global exchange. The coin has printed as much as 72.16% to $7.07. The Huobi token is flying on a massively bullish trend with the news of the exchange being acquired by About Capital Management, with reports of links to Tron’s founder, Justin Sun.
With the change of ownership, investors believe the exchange may be well-capitalized and positioned to finance its current global growth.
Arweave (AR)
Arweave is a decentralized storage network that seeks to offer a platform for the indefinite data storage. Since its inception, the protocol's adoption has grown remarkably; thus far, this adoption has been reflected in its token price growth.
The coin is changing hands at $10.06, up 13.50% over the past week.
