Tagger and DeFi Tokens Benefit from Exchange Momentum

TAG’s price rose to $0.0002 with a $26.3 million valuation, while DEFI hit the same price point but with a smaller $2.8 million market cap. Both assets trade on Bybit and may have benefited from speculative trading behavior tied to low-cap tokens.

SYRUP’s price stood at $0.61 with a significantly higher market cap of $656.5 million, suggesting strong liquidity and investor backing.
