Along with the growth in the DeFi space, Cosmos also witnessed an uptick in its development activity indicating that the team at Cosmos was making massive contributions to its GitHub.

Growing parallelly with ATOM’s development activity was its volume. Over the past week, ATOM’s volume grew from 181 million all the way to 621 million. However, despite the growing volume, the sentiment around ATOM remained negative.

Over the past few days, ATOM’s weighted sentiment declined. Thus, indicating that the crypto community’s outlook on ATOM had become negative.
