The best cryptomovers of the week
The volatility of the cryptocurrency market is well known. However, this has not stopped people, businesses and investment firms from putting their money into crypto. With so much volatility, this week’s top crypto engines have seen some notable gains.
Top crypto movers
It is very important to note that there are currently over 19,000 cryptocurrencies populated on dozens of blockchain platforms. That said, monitoring the biggest movements of all the cryptocurrencies will generate a list from the smallest coins. And to be honest, there’s no telling how long they’ll be there.
The top movers for the week on this list come from Coinbase. And just because they’re on Coinbase doesn’t mean they’ll be there either. Remember that Terra was one of the best currencies trading at $116 in April 2022. It is now worth $0.000098.

Investment in cryptocurrency
Moving from traditional investment avenues to cryptocurrency is a big leap. But it’s not that different in that you need to do your due diligence before putting up your hard earned money. Before you invest your money in anything, make sure you are fully aware of the risks involved. Whether it’s a cryptocurrency or a traditional investment avenue, information is your best friend.
Based on this information, make the right investment according to the risk. In that regard, investing in cryptocurrency is no different than any other investment. However, cryptocurrencies are not regulated and their value seems to go up or down without rhyme or reason. Granted, they may have a large underlying value, but that doesn’t seem to have any impact as the market is primarily driven by how Bitcoin and to some extent Ethereum is doing.
As with any type of investment, be prepared to lose what you put in when investing in cryptocurrency.
