After a two-week slump pushing the global crypto market cap to $1.03 trillion, a resurgence led by tokens like Sei, CyberConnect, and Akropolis elevates it to $1.1 trillion.
The crypto ecosystem has been struggling over the past two weeks, with the global market cap dropping to a local low of $1.03 trillion on Aug. 23. With the recent news around the Grayscale Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF), the industry has gained traction again.
According to data provided by CoinMarketCap (CMC), the global crypto market capitalization is getting close to the $1.1 trillion mark — with a 4.2% rise in the past 24 hours — as most of the top assets have turned green.
Here are the top 10 gainers among the leading 500 cryptocurrencies:
Sei token (SEI) is leading the list with 1,758% gains since its launch on Aug. 14. The asset was soon listed on Binance, Coinbase and Bitfinex, among other exchanges, resulting in a 2,600% rise just hours after it launched.
Moreover, SEI registered an 18% hike over the past 24 hours and is trading at $0.145 at the time of writing. The asset ranks 109 on CMC with a market cap of over $262 million.
