Hold onto your hats, crypto fans, because the altcoin express has taken off with some jaw-dropping double-digit gains in just 24 hours! While Bitcoin's been on quite the wild ride, dipping and diving around the $95,000 mark after hitting a wall at $97,500, the altcoins have been stealing the spotlight.
Remember the nail-biting drop Bitcoin took last week, sliding under $91,000? It was its most dramatic tumble since the rally kicked off in early November. But fear not, Bitcoin's been climbing its way back up, hitting a high near $99,000 on Friday before the bears pulled it back down over the weekend. As of now, it's hanging out just above $95,000, trying to find its footing.
Meanwhile, altcoins like ADA, AVAX, TRX, LINK, and HBAR have been putting on a show, with some mind-blowing price surges. XRP, in particular, has been on fire, shooting up by 25% at one point and flirting with the $3 mark for the first time in seven years! Even after cooling off a bit to $2.6, XRP's market cap is still a hefty $150 billion, making it the third-largest crypto out there.
Other altcoin winners include ADA soaring by 17%, AVAX with an 11% boost, TRX up by 14%, and LINK rocketing by a whopping 27%. HBAR takes the cake with a massive 42% jump! All these gains have pushed the total crypto market cap up by $70 billion since yesterday, now sitting pretty above $3.6 trillion.
