CFX first gained recognition earlier this year when it was integrated with China's popular social media platform, Xiaohongshu. At the same time, Conflux Network emerged as the only regulatory-compliant blockchain in China, inking partnerships with major companies such as McDonald's. The news was further driven home by China Telecom's announcement of the launch of SIM cards with Conflux Network's blockchain support. CFX is also popularly known as China’s ‘MATIC’.

The second on the list is Mask Network’s native token MASK MASK/USD which gained 78% in seven days. According to on-chain data analytics tracking firm Lookonchain, whales have been driving up the price of the MASK token, helping it achieve its parabolic rally in the past week.
