Leading Performers

Hedera (HBAR) led the upward movement with a substantial 17.0% gain, followed by Litecoin (LTC) which added 13.0% to its value. The strong performance of these alternative cryptocurrencies suggests increasing investor interest in blockchain platforms beyond the dominant assets.

Notable Decliners

Despite the broader market strength, some major cryptocurrencies faced selling pressure. Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, declined by 3.4%. Uniswap (UNI), a leading decentralized exchange token, dropped 1.4%, indicating some weakness in the decentralized finance sector.
