A spokesperson from Bombastic commented on the findings: “Now, with years of historical data, these findings offer crypto traders an insight into the safest and riskiest coins to invest in.
“Data shows that memecoin Bonk experienced huge percentage changes in price, over 10,000% more than the next coin.
“Among the most bullish coins are ones attached to games networks such as Gala, Axie Infinity, and The Sandbox.
“It could signal that market sentiment towards these gaming ecosystems is downward or in favor of other coins”.
