10 Cryptocurrencies That Earned Big Gains in a Rough Week for the Market
The cryptocurrency markets are rebounding today after a rough seven days. The total market cap sits at just over $396 billion at time of publishing, according to WorldCoinIndex.

Meanwhile, Zilliqa continued to climb after a successful testnet launch and the coin’s addition to Binance, Bithumb and Upbit.
