Is Now The Time To Buy Enjin Coin, WazirX, Celsius, Ethereum Classic, Or Solana Cryptocurrencies?

Even though major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) were in the red at press time, there are some coins that were bucking the trend. Is it now the time to buy Enjin Coin (ENJ), WazirX (WRX), Celsius (CEL), Ethereum Classic (ETC), or Solana (SOL)?

ENJ: The coin of a company that provides blockchain-based gaming products and a social gaming platform has shot up nearly 1960% since the year began. ENJ traded 16.5% higher over 24 hours at $2.69 at press time and is up 5.72% on a seven-day trailing basis. In late March, Enjin raised $18.9 million to build a Polkadot (DOT)-based blockchain networking focused on non-fungible tokens, The Block reported. DOT traded 5.44% lower at $40.02 at press time. On Wednesday, Coinbase said it would launch ENJ on its platform and trading will commence on April 9, if liquidity conditions are met. 

WRX: The utility token of the Indian cryptocurrency exchange WazirX has shot up a whopping 6,349% YTD. The coin traded 30.49% higher at $4.21 at press time and has risen 446.72% for the week. On Monday, WazirX launched a marketplace for NFTs in India.

The delay in the introduction of a bill that would have banned cryptocurrencies in India has buoyed the spirits of investors in the country.

DOGE traded 6.7% lower at $0.60 at press time. In late March, Celsius announced that its customers could purchase cryptocurrencies like BTC, and ETH with Apple Pay, Apple Inc’s AAPL mobile payment, and digital wallet service.
