The trading floors are seeing some interesting moves in the latest quarter-hour. Gaming and metaverse tokens are leading the charge—SAND (The Sandbox) surged 3.47%, while Axie Infinity (AXS) climbed 3.37%. Ronin (RONIN) wasn't far behind at 2.96% gains, signaling renewed interest in the gaming sector.
On the flip side, not all altcoins are riding the wave. KARRAT took the biggest hit, dropping 1.52%, followed by Chiliz (CHZ) down 0.96% and Internet Computer (ICP) sliding 0.83%. These dips suggest some profit-taking in certain niches.
Volume-wise, Bitcoin (BTC) continues to dominate trading activity, maintaining its position as the market's heavyweight champion. Short-term traders should keep tabs on these movements—15 minutes can shift momentum quickly in crypto markets.

Game coins really surged today, with SAND directly up 3.47%... but this move only lasted about 15 minutes, don't get too excited.

The gaming concept has been revived again. Isn't this just old Ma recognizing the way? The newbies are still chasing high on SAND and AXS, not realizing that these are just the final bait before the capital schemes start to harvest.

Game coins are rising again? This wave of SAND and AXS is indeed fierce, but I'm more concerned about whether this is a real hot trend or just another round of a rug pull show...

GameFi is making a comeback? SAND is rising nicely, but it feels like another bubble, and it'll probably plunge again later.
