As you follow from Kriptokoin.com, the market is having a quiet weekend. Although the leading crypto Bitcoin tested above $28,000 on Friday, it later slipped below. However, it continues to struggle just below this critical slope. Besides, most altcoins are trading in the red zone. However, there are exceptions to this. According to the crypto analytics platform Lookonchain, the price of Stratis (STRAX) skyrocketed, especially with the purchases of one investor.
