Swarm of Alternative Crypto Assets Outpace Bitcoin’s Gains by Double Digits This Week

After the price of bitcoin tapped an all-time high above the $67K handle, it then dropped below the $60K zone to $59,510 per unit. Since then, the leading crypto asset has regained some of the losses and bitcoin is still up 2.4% during the last seven days. However, a great number of crypto assets have outperformed bitcoin’s weekly rise, capturing double-digit gains as high as 65.1%.

Thorchain, Nexo, Near, Okb, Shiba Inu, Safemoon Values Spike

Digital currency markets are on the move again as the $2.733 trillion market valuation of all 10,000+ crypto assets is up 4.6% on Monday. BTC has jumped a bit higher during the latter half of Sunday’s trading sessions into Monday and BTC has gained 2.4% this past week. But there’s over 55 different digital assets that have outperformed BTC’s weekly gains.

The top seven-day gainer this week is thorchain (RUNE) which has jumped a whopping 65.1% this past week. The crypto asset thorchain has a $3.3 billion market capitalization and $208 million in trade volume on Monday. Nexo (NEXO) spiked 61.6% during the last week and has a market cap of around $1.5 billion.

Nexo is followed by okb’s (OKB) gains which have jumped 61.5% this week and near’s (NEAR) value rise of 56.1%. Shiba inu suffered some losses after Elon Musk said he didn’t own any SHIB but the meme-currency did gather 53.2% in gains this week. Harmony (ONE) did well this past week obtaining 47.5% and safemoon (SAFEMOON) lifted 45.8%.

Ethereum Gains 9% Pushing Market Dominance to 18.2%

As far as the top ten crypto are concerned, ethereum (ETH) has risen 9.4%, binance coin (BNB) spiked 3.4%, solana (SOL) is up 33%, polkadot (DOT) up 5.7%, and dogecoin (DOGE) jumped 10.7%. With a $2.733 trillion market valuation, all the digital assets today have seen around $125 billion in global trade volume.

Ethereum’s 9.4% gain has cushioned ether’s dominance level this week as it has tapped 18.2% on Monday. Bitcoin’s dominance level has dropped a couple of percentages from over 45% to 43.5% on Monday afternoon.

Furthermore, binance coin (BNB) has a market cap dominance of around 3.09%, the stablecoin tether (USDT) commands 2.72%, cardano (ADA) 2.71%, and solana (SOL) 2.43% in terms of market dominance among the 10,000+ crypto assets.
