GMX Protocol (GMX)
The GMX Protocol is a decentralized exchange (DEX) for margin trade. It allows traders to open leveraged trading positions by depositing collaterals in Ethereum (ETH), Avalanche (AVAX), or Circle USD (USDC).
Interestingly, these traders are betting against GMX holders, who provide liquidity and collect fees from the operations. The GMX is also a governance token, allowing its holders to vote in governance proposals for the platform.
Meanwhile, GMX is priced at $34.05 by press time, with close to $17 million in exchanged volume in the last 24 hours, close to dropping from the top 100.

Pepe (PEPE)
Pepe was the most trended meme coin in 2023, with a gigantic supply of 420.69 trillion tokens, that entered the top 100 cryptocurrencies after a massive purely speculative action.
PEPE investors were panicking as the Ethereum address belonging to the team behind Pepe (“0xa34…f2ea0”) transferred 16.045 trillion PEPE worth $16.85M to four exchanges in Binance, OKX, KuCoin, and Bybit on August 24.
