Lisk captures community spotlight as its price surges by 51%
Lisk, despite not reaching its peak in 2017, continues to show a positive trend, as reported by CoinGecko on January 2nd.
However, over the past six years, Lisk’s popularity has declined. At one point, Lisk was among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
Now, in 2023, as the blockchain industry matures, Lisk is ranked at 244 on CoinMarketCap. This decline is accompanied by an 83% decrease in market capitalization, dropping from $919 million to $152 million.
The recent surge of interest in Lisk is believed to be a result of the announcement of an expansion strategy. Gelato, which facilitates Lisk, plans to integrate into the Ethereum ecosystem by transitioning to an Ethereum Layer-2. This move aligns Lisk with OP Mainnet, Base, and other OP Chains, making it the first Layer-1 to commit to Optimism’s superchain vision.
It’s important to note that Lisk aims to onboard 100 million users to crypto and web3. They provide a user-friendly blockchain application platform and a leading JavaScript SDK. The Lisk SDK, launched in 2019, empowers developers to build application-specific blockchains using JavaScript, the most widely used programming language in the world.
As of now, Lisk is valued at $2.05, showing a 51.1% increase in the past 24 hours and a 24.4% increase in the past month.
For more information, Lisk has also launched an accelerator program for web3 startups and developers. Stay updated by following us on Google News.
