The interest from these whales also outstretched the benefits of the CRO trading volume. At the time of writing, data from CoinMarketCap reported a 66.24% increase from the previous day. The surge in volume indicated an impressive trader involvement in transacting CRO within the said period.

Bring “this” in, take “that” out

According to Santiment, Cronos has also enjoyed a wave of retail interest besides whale participation. This was due to the reflection of the active deposits on exchanges as revealed by the on-chain analytic platform. 

At press time, the CRO active deposits had risen to 26. This metric, being at the highest point since 19 December, reflected that there had been a good number of unique incoming transactions on the Cronos chain. 

Coincidentally, CRO’s 24-hour active addresses also followed the trend displayed by the unique deposits. Theoretically, this implies a significant amount of overall activity and notably high utility.

The exchange’s CEO, Kris Marszalek, noted that the current market state was not an excuse to opt out of participating. He said,

“Even in the current market, we consider it to be as important as ever to invest in innovative technologies that will make a positive impact on climate change across our ecosystem.”

Less traction and an impending fall for Cronos

Although CRO transactions were impressive, it has yet to impact network growth positively. Its value at 92 signified that Cronos hardly got any new address onboarding on the network. At press time, CRO was exchanging hands at $0.079.

How much are 1,10,100 CROs worth today?

Per the daily chart, CRO exhibited high volatility, as revealed by the Bollinger Bands (BB). But the CRO price was continually hitting the upper band, which meant that it was overbought at press time, and a reversal could be imminent in the short term.

Regarding the momentum, the Awesome Oscillator (AO) displayed that CRO had a bullish edge since the dynamic lines were above the histogram. In addition, there were little signs that a bullish twin peak had already formed.
