Bitcoin Tops the List, Followed by Rising Newcomers
Bitcoin (BTC) led the rankings, unsurprisingly, as it continues to command a market cap above $2 trillion and remains the central focus for both retail and institutional investors. Behind Bitcoin were Hyperliquid and Sui, with market caps of $11.6 billion and $10.2 billion, respectively, showing growing traction among Layer 1 and derivatives-focused networks.
Well-established tokens like Solana ($77.4B), Ethereum ($296.7B), and XRP ($125.7B) also made the top 10, reflecting ongoing investor interest in blue-chip crypto assets.
Low-Cap Projects See Surge in Visibility
Interestingly, the list also featured several lower market cap tokens that drew significant attention due to hype cycles, community engagement, or unique positioning. Projects such as GOHOME ($130.4M), Magic Eden ($130.7M), Virtuals Protocol ($1.1B), and meme coin Fartcoin ($1.1B) were among the most buzzed-about, despite their smaller capitalization.
Newer names like SPX6900, Berachain, Plume, and Sophon also earned spots on the list, signaling a trend of exploration beyond traditional coins.
