Altcoins sell-off while exchange listings boost COTI and Conflux Network

Bears pressed harder on the market today after Bitcoin (BTC)  continued its pullback to an intra-day low at $46,250 and altcoins nursed near double-digit losses.
While most of the market is seeing red a few altcoins managed to notch notable gains due to exchange listings and new staking opportunities.

Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the biggest gainers over the past 24-hours were COTI (COTI), XYO Network (XYO) and Conflux Network (CFX).
