Just a day after Binance CEO Changpeng "CZ" Zhao called on cryptocurrency users to take “personal control” of their digital assets using Trust Wallet, the app's native token, TWT TWT/USD hit a record high.

Apex cryptocurrency Bitcoin BTC/USD plunged 23.69%, failing to regain the $20,000 mark, while Ethereum ETH/USD declined by 25.52% to $1,180 and Dogecoin DOGE/USD lost 30%, in the past seven days, as seen in the early hours of Monday.

Coming in second was PAX Gold PAXG/USD, a gold-backed cryptocurrency that spiked by 4.17%, trading at $1,733. PAXG became one of the most used smart contracts among the top 100 ETH whales on Nov.11.
