🚀 Virtuals on fire with 46% growth on staked assets

Virtuals Protocol is surely riding the waves of success, as the platform attracted 46% more value in its $VIRTUAL staking contract. The token increased 16% in value in the past 7 days, reaching $2.22. However, the staking TVL gained 46% and now has a total value of $61.78 million.

Despite the growth in $VIRTUAL staking and the trust the community is showing, the platform didn't grow that much in terms of actual users. Over the past 7 days it grew its audience 5% to 21,880 active wallets. However, 30 days ago the platform only attracted 750 active wallets, which shows the growth they've been through.
