Ethereum Classic has regained momentum, climbing 8%. Axie Infinity jumped another 22% today, marking its second consecutive day of gains. AAVE rose 7% and Convex Finance gained 9%. Convex Finance is up about 25% this week as it recovers from recent difficult times.

Quant and Qtum, ranked around the 90th position, rose approximately 12% and 13% respectively. Quant recently announced the upcoming release of Overledger 2.2.2, which is expected to introduce new second-layer smart contract capabilities for minting and burning tokens and for account management.

Among the laggards, several coins from the top-100 list fell more than 5% today. ApeCoin dropped 7%, the largest loss among top-100 tokens, and is down about 15% over the past seven days. Having delivered strong results for a time, it’s not unexpected that this token is experiencing a pullback now.
