Crypto markets are trading sideways this week as Bitcoin and Ethereum hold support. After a bloodbath last week, metaverse crypto coins are starting to see bullish movement. This article looks at the highest traded Metaverse crypto coins with a market cap below $250 million.
#5 My Neighbor Alice (ALICE)
- Market Cap: $198 million
