Learn about OKT, a Cosmos-based altcoin now defying a bear market

OKT token rose by double digits last week

The cryptocurrency has been boosted by new partnerships

OKT is correcting but remains on an uptrend

OKT, the cryptocurrency native to the OKX Chain, made headlines last week. The cryptocurrency rose by double digits to end the week at $27 after trading at just $17 seven days earlier. OKT has since cooled and traded at $22 as of press time. A spot technical check shows that the token has been on an uptrend for more than a month. What has been boosting the price?

OKX is a Cosmos IBC-linked blockchain. It is EVM-compatible and focuses on true interoperability for high performance. The blockchain dubs itself the next-gen platform for decentralised applications. OKX Chain’s Web3 wallet allows users to manage their portfolio of NFTs and tokens.

OKT’s gains come on the back of positive cryptocurrency news of the OKX Chain. The blockchain announced partnerships with social gaming platform Candy Club, DEX network Lovely Swap, and meme asset Chihuahua Chain. The other firm in the latest wave of collaborations was market analytics firm Nansen. The collaborations increase the utility of OKT since the cryptocurrency will be employed in a number of related use cases. Investors have been taking note and buying the little-known token.
