Bitcoin recently surged to a new all-time high of $118K+ This move not only marks a significant shift after an extensive period of stagnation, but also signals a breakout above the former resistance, now support, of $ 110K.

These are typically smaller projects and generally fall within the micro-caps sector. As mentioned in a recent post, Silencio is an excellent altcoin to acquire without any investment through recording noise pollution via the Silencio dApp. At the time of writing, Silencio’s SLC token is up 12%, and the market cap has already surged to nearly $5 million in just a few days.
