The week has been much more successful for some of SAFEMOON’s fellow DeFi tokens. Kava.io (KAVA) hit an all-time high on August 22, and data indicated that it has made a couple of further attempts to reach those heights since. In addition, Terra (LUNA) also achieved its latest all-time high, hitting $36.61 in the morning of August 29. This milestone is the result of an impressive total growth of nearly 30%.

The longer term relationship varies over time. After exhibiting strong positive correlation in 2013 (where prices rose), and 2014 (where prices fell for a sustained interval), the longer term relationship between Bitcoin and Litecoin starts to break down around the middle of 2015. It can be seen in the accompanying price plot that at this point the Bitcoin price starts to gradually recover, whereas the Litecoin price does not.
