📈 GambleFi Tokens in the Last 7 Days

The market saw significant declines, with many tokens dropping 20% or more, reflecting the turbulent week in crypto.

An exception was $WIK, which surged 58%. Wicked Casino reached all-time highs in both revenue and unique players over the last two reported weeks in July ($2.05M and 557, respectively).

Two other tokens less affected were the decentralized $SX and $WINR, both mentioned in the news section above.

Please reply to let me know of any other tokens to include, and I'll ensure they're added in the next issue.

Tokens added since the last issue: $WIK | $BCB | $CSC
