CARV explodes 79% as top crypto exchanges list token

CARV, a modular data layer for gaming and artificial intelligence, has seen the price of its native token surge sharply in the past 24 hours.

The CARV platform launched its token on Oct. 10, revealing that eight top-tier crypto exchanges had listed its token. According to a post on X, Bybit, Bitget, KuCoin, HTX, and MEXC are among the top exchanges offering trading support.

In the hours following the token’s launch, CARV’s price shot up, rising from post-launch lows of $0.26 to highs above $0.61. These gains came as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) and other top coins struggled for upside. Uniswap (UNI), however, had surged on news from the Uniswap Labs team.

While the token has pared some of its gains, its current price of $0.49 reflects intraday gains of more than 79%. Daily trading volume stood at over $22.2 million, while the market cap reached $62 million.
