2021 has been an incredible year for bitcoin, ethereum, and a
great number of the world’s most popular digital assets. While bitcoin
has gained around 300% during the last 12 months and ethereum has risen
by 630%, a large swathe of crypto assets saw much larger gains.
12-Month Stats Show a Slew of Relatively Unknown Tokens Outperformed the Top Ten Crypto Assets by Market Cap
After the March 12, 2020 market crash that wreaked havoc on nearly every commodity in the world, otherwise known as ‘Black Thursday,’
the crypto economy ballooned in value. Three months ago, most crypto
assets tapped fresh new all-time highs, but quite a bit of these coins
have since retreated between 30-55% in value. The lion’s share of crypto
supporters dedicate their focus to crypto-assets like bitcoin,
ethereum, or assets in the top 20 crypto assets by market valuation.
Game Stars network is an e-sports “blockchain platform that helps to
monetize cyber athletes’ professional advancement,” according to the
project description. The project’s native token GST has gained 41,882%
in 12 months to date.
However, even though BTC and ETH
have seen 12-month gains between 300% and 630%, many other coins
outshined these assets by a long shot over the last year. The biggest
gainer during the last 12 months is a coin called game stars (GST)
which is trading for $0.40 per unit. Game stars tokens have increased
in value by a whopping 41,882% over the trailing 12-month period.
Another crypto-asset that has done almost as well as GST, is mir coin (MIR), which is swapping for $3.73 per coin and gained a massive 41,462% in a year’s time.
coin (MIR) is a payments platform that wants to spread global adoption
and the project has created a concept called MIR Land. So far, during
the last 12 months, MIR has spiked by 41,462% and is trading today for
$3.73 per unit.
GST and MIR are followed by two more relatively unknown crypto assets which include content value network (CVNT) and stox (STOX)
tokens. CVNT is up 20,101% in 12 months while STOX is up 13,957%. The
next crypto asset on the list with massive 12-month gains is dogecoin (DOGE), which is one of the top ten most valuable crypto markets in terms of market capitalization. DOGE has increased in value by 7,730% over the last 12 months as each meme-based token trades for $0.283 today.
Biggest Top-Ten Gainers: Dogecoin, Binance Coin, Cardano
As far as the top ten is concerned, binance coin (BNB) and cardano (ADA) have been the leaders after dogecoin’s 7,730% gains. BNB has risen 1,649% while ADA’s
gains have been a touch lower at 1,450% during the year. 12-month
statistics show that ethereum’s 630% would make ether the fourth largest
gainer over 12 months out of the top ten positions today. Of course, it
wouldn’t be right to forget about the past year’s biggest losers and
the token hyperion (HYN) was the worst performer out of all 10,000+ crypto-assets.
HYN lost 99.5% of its value and is followed by shipchain (SHIP) token
which lost 99.21% over the year. Tendies (TEND) lost 94.34%, hycon
(HYC) shaved 93.02%, and monero classic (XMC) lost around 92.32% over
the course of the last 12 months. At the time of writing, the entire
crypto-economy is worth $1.96 trillion and out of the top ten crypto
market positions on Saturday, August 13, XRP is the biggest 24-hour gainer jumping 11% in value.
