A peek at the 10 top crypto gainers today

It has been evident that the cryptocurrency market has been trying to regain price and trading volume over the past couple of weeks. The blockchain industry has been suffering since its major crash back in 2021 when BTC fell from its all-time high of more than $67,000 to the current $20,000 price level.

Recently, there has been much volatility in the market, which has mostly been bullish in nature. While the market has been keeping investors on their toes, a majority of them have been looking to park their funds in high-potential projects. Several major projects have been spiking in prices for the same reason lately.

Listed below are 10 of the latest top gainers across various exchanges like eToro and Binance.

LAZIO (S.S. Lazio Fan Token)

Launched by the top cryptocurrency exchange Binance, LAZIO is a fan token. Since fan tokens became popular, Socios was the sole company to launch several of these digital assets successfully. However, this fan token from Binance also made its way to becoming one of the top fans tokens in the space.

The project is created to nurture relationships between the players and their fans, by providing them with several benefits and perks to engage with the club. In this case, it is the famed S.S Lazio Club, which is one of the most prestigious football clubs based in Italy.
