Crypto market’s weekly winners and losers – APE, DOGE, TAO, MKR

  • ApeCoin, Dogecoin, and cats in a dogs world are the biggest winners of the past week.
  • Popcat, Bittensor, and Maker are the biggest losers of the past week.

As a seasoned crypto investor with a knack for spotting trends and riding the waves of market volatility, I’ve seen my fair share of rollercoasters. This week, ApeCoin [APE] has been the undisputed champion, skyrocketing to new heights and leaving me scratching my head in disbelief. Dogecoin [DOGE] also made a strong comeback, while Popcat [POPCAT] took a nose dive that left even the most hardened investors feeling a little queasy.


Over the last day, I’ve witnessed some exciting developments in the crypto world, particularly with ApeCoin [APE]. It surged to become this week’s leading gainer, an impressive feat that I couldn’t help but notice. Interestingly, this surge came at a time when Bitcoin [BTC] finally breached the $68,000 mark, signaling a significant breakthrough after weeks of relatively stable movement.

This week, Dogecoin [DOGE] managed to secure a spot among the winners, while Popcat [POPCAT] unfortunately ranked as the top loser on the list.
