With the ever-changing landscape of tech development and crypto innovation, regulation tends to lag behind in order to have time to react to what’s happening. Many altcoin projects are currently growing exponentially as they are exploring largely untouched use cases. As the tech continues to proliferate and expand, more and more “problems” are arising that require solutions.  This obviously provides more space for viable contenders to occupy in a crowded market. This provides a robust growth argument for many altcoins, but there is a catch. The giant growth gains are

Have you heard? NFTs are hot again. The media (both crypto media and mainstream media) declared NFTs dead in June, citing data that showed sales volume had dropped precipitously at the largest NFT sites. But now the market for blockchain-based digital collectibles has come roaring back (along with the price of Ethereum), especially one segment of the NFT boom that probably looks particularly bizarre to skeptical onlookers: cartoon animal collections. Pudgy Penguins hit $11 million in daily sales volume. Bored Apes hit a floor (the cheapest price for one NFT)

Bitcoin has desperately been trying to climb above the $48k mark since 14 August, but has been unable to do so. In fact, the king coin was trading at $47.2k at the time of writing. Most of the market’s alts have also followed Bitcoin’s scepticism and managed to fetch only single-digit returns to their HODLers over the past day. However, a couple of alts from the top 35 list managed to fare better than the broader market. Terra’s (LUNA) value, for instance, has appreciated by 31.1% in the past 24-hours
