CoinMarketCap shares its sentiment on the state of the crypto market

During Binance Blockchain Week, a team from CoinMarketCap, specializing in market data analysis, intervened to present the latest important elements to analyze the situation of the cryptocurrency market.

Crypto Market Cap

Considering sideways market movements, CoinMarketCap saw the total cryptocurrency market capitalization decline by 9.98% in August alone, to less than $1 trillion. This decline is partly explained by macro-economic factors and difficult global economic conditions.

However, a few sectors are still experiencing strong growth.

The DeFi, smart contracts, and collectibles/NFT sectors saw the strongest growth in dollar market capitalization in August. Additionally, the gambling and fan token sectors saw the highest percentage growth in market capitalization with 404% and 262% growth respectively.

For trading volumes, stablecoins and DeFi are still leading

New Token Listings: GameFi-related industries such as Play-to-Earn, Gaming, and Metaverse have the highest number of new token listings, growing around 14% in August.

We also note that bitcoin remains the main cryptocurrency in all regions of the world. Followed by Ether and, strangely, the Shiba Inu. Memecoins remain very strong vectors of attraction and adoption of cryptocurrencies. The dream of making an x1000 remains anchored in the collective imagination. And these altcoins embody this dream of wealth, at the risk and peril of investors.

The term “rug-pull” is also one of the most searched in the crypto ecosystem. Positive information that shows that investors are trying to understand and anticipate the dangers of Web3 by getting information upstream.

Layer 1 solutions with built-in optimization such as Aptos (popular with SOL builders) and Sui (popular for gaming/NFT) are gaining popularity.
