OTC Weekly Trading Insights (09/26/20
After a significant 50 basis point interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve last Wednesday, market sentiment has turned bullish. Let’s dive into the latest trends shaping the cryptocurrency landscape!
Bitcoin and Altcoin Surge
Last week, Bitcoin (BTC) hovered around $63,000, but the real excitement came from altcoins, particularly meme coins and promising layer-1 tokens like Sui ($SUI) and NEAR ($NEAR).
Sui ($SUI) on the Rise
Sui has made waves in the top 100 cryptocurrencies, surging from $0.74 on September 2 to an impressive $1.76 by September 24—a staggering 137% increase in just three weeks! This rally was fueled by the launch of the Grayscale Sui Trust, which has attracted considerable interest from accredited investors.
Bittensor ($TAO) Gains Momentum
Bittensor is also on fire, experiencing a 66.1% increase over the past week, with trading volume on Convert skyrocketing by over 200%. Following the introduction of the Grayscale Bittensor Trust in August, the price of TAO jumped from $228 on September 6 to a recent high of $590, marking an extraordinary 160% gain in three weeks.
NEAR ($NEAR) Follows Suit
Not to be left behind, NEAR has also seen robust demand, riding the coattails of its competitors Sui and Bittensor. Grayscale launched the Grayscale NEAR Trust just a month prior to Sui, and while these rallies may coincide, it's wise to keep an eye on these tokens for emerging patterns.
Overall Market Outlook
With a bullish sentiment permeating the market and a noticeable uptick in demand for altcoins, investors should remain vigilant. The performance of these layer-1 tokens could signal larger trends ahead.
