This Crypto Spiked 78% Last Week Even As Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Took Hammering Over FTX Collapse

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.
