Calls for the arrival of an altseason are growing louder on Nov. 3 after the price action for altcoins is on the rise and Bitcoin (BTC) price lingers at the $62,000 support level. 

At the moment, gaming tokens, supply chain-related projects and decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols are scorching hot and as shown below, many altcoins are posting double and triple-digit gains today.

The sudden surge in price for TRAC comes as the token was listed on several new cryptocurrency exchanges, including Coinbase.

XYO Network surpasses 3 million nodes

The XYO protocol is a geospatial oracle network comprised of a decentralized ecosystem of devices that anonymously collect, validate and record data on the XYO blockchain.
