Crypto Chaos & Market Mayhem: AAVE Takes a Nose Dive, Index Mopes Alone

CoinDesk Indices: The Daily Drama of Markets and Mishaps

Market chaos

Once again, the CoinDesk Indices decided to perform their daily somersaults, showing us just how lively the global market gymnasium can be. Today’s headline: the CoinDesk 20 index, which is basically the market’s version of a high school cafeteria food tray-variety, chaos, and just a little bit of hope for something better.

The index is sitting at a lovely number-3051.08, to be precise-meaning it’s 2.6% (or a modest -80.64 points for those who like their losses in tangible units) down since 4 p.m. ET on Thursday. Apparently, the market prefers dramatic exits over standing ovations.

Lucky for us, three of the twenty assets managed to stay afloat, like tiny boats in a stormy sea. Spoiler: they’re called DOT (+1.2%) and APT (+1.0%)-the cheerful twins who forgot there was a hurricane brewing.

The real stars of the show, though, are the laggards, AAVE and UNI, who decided to take a leisurely slide downhill with -7.8% and -5.5%, respectively. AAVE, in particular, seems to have taken its name literally and decided to just “fade” away.

Meanwhile, the CoinDesk 20 index continues to be a globe-spanning, multi-platform, roller coaster-because what’s more fun than watching a bunch of assets scramble in all directions? Grab your popcorn! 🍿🚀
