CoinDesk Indices (CDI) presents its bi-weekly market update, highlighting the performance of leaders and laggards in the benchmark CoinDesk 20 Index (CD20) and the broad CoinDesk Market Index (CMI)

This week's performance of the CoinDesk 20 was mixed as 8 of the 20 index members closed higher yesterday compared with last Friday’s close. There was a notable divergence between bitcoin (BTC) – which managed a modest gain – and ether (ETH), which posted a 1.7% decline.

Dogecoin (DOGE) led gainers over the last week, followed by (NEAR), which has more than doubled in value this year.
