Stellar (XLM) is one of the top 20 currencies that gained the most in price — up 5 percent as of press time trading at $0.26 — while Cardano (ADA) has gained more than 2 percent on the day. Monero (XMR), in its turn, is in the red, seeing the most visible loss — down 2.5 percent on the day to press time— among the leading currencies.

The weekend is marked by ongoing legal battles with unregistered crypto-related companies in several countries.

In the U.S., the Colorado State Securities Commissioner issued a cease and desist order to four Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) for allegedly offering unregistered securities. Meanwhile, Germany’s financial regulator ordered the partial cessation of activities by a U.K.-based crypto-related firm that offers cross-border trading on its platform. And in South Korea, crypto trading platform Zeniex has been forced to close amid the recent government crackdown on unregistered crypto exchanges.

Chinese mining giant Bitmain has also initiated litigation in U.S., suing an anonymous hacker for the alleged theft of cryptocurrency worth $5.5 million from Bitmain’s account on Binance in April.
