CFX Rallies on China Buzz, But Fundamentals Still Lag
Conflux’s CFX emerged as the winner during weekend trading, gaining around 14%, according to CryptoX market data, and surpassing the broader CryptoX 20 index, which rose by 4%.

Eventually, it comes down to the support levels and how much buying is going on to actually counter the effects of massive sell-offs that continue to drive down the price. However, if bulls are able to hold, then it could suggest there is enough momentum behind the cryptocurrency to push for new highs. Why Bitcoin Must Hold $100,000 In an analysis, crypto and market analyst…
