The price of Liquity, LQTY, has risen by more than 40% since the beginning of the week, reaching $3.37 per token, its highest value in 12 months. The price action has made LQTY one of the most profitable crypto assets of recent days among the top 200 by market capitalization. One of the reasons for the renaissance of both Liquity and its native token, which have been off the radar for two years, could be the crisis in the stablecoin sector, when many big players turned their attention to the protocol.
