Altcoins are feeling the heat as the crypto market faces increased volatility. Coins like Solana, Cardano, and Avalanche have seen double-digit losses in the past week, following Bitcoin and Ethereum’s downward trend. This drop is largely driven by global economic fears and profit-taking after a strong start to the year. Despite the dip, many altcoins continue to build and grow their ecosystems, especially in DeFi and gaming sectors. For long-term believers, this correction might present a chance to accumulate quality projects at discounted prices.
