3 altcoins outperform the market despite Bitcoin’s dip, they are…

The altcoin market cap has been in a strong uptrend. The positive performance of Cardano and the others is likely to continue in the coming weeks.

ADA
  • The past week’s volatility saw three clear bullish performers emerge from among the popular large-cap assets
  • Since November, Injective has been weaker compared to Cardano or Stellar

Bitcoin [BTC] had a volatile start to the year. Since Wednesday the 1st of January, it rallied 9.93% from $93.4k to $102.7k before plunging 7% over the past 24 hours. At press time, BTC was trading at $95.5k.

Some large-cap altcoins that performed well during the past week were Cardano [ADA], Stellar Lumens [XLM], and Injective [INJ].

While ADA has fallen below the psychological $1 level again, its rising Total Value Locked (TVL) was an encouraging sight. Injective also witnessed an uptick in new addresses and active addresses, a sign of increased participation and growing demand.
