Top 10 Shakeup Continues

Tuesday saw one of the biggest shake-ups in the top 10 seen in recent weeks. Theta Network, which had a phenomenal Tuesday, climbed over 32%. The price surge saw THETA leapfrog Chainlink (LINK) and Litecoin (LTC) take the ninth spot. Cardano’s price correction continues to see it lose ground on Binance Coin (BNB) and Tether (USDT) after breaking into the top three last week. The shakeup sees another fairly newer project in THETA join the likes of UNI and DOT in the top 10. Older projects such as Dogecoin (DOGE), Tron (TRX), and EOS continue to fall down the pecking order.
