AMP, XVS and RSR price saw strong breakouts after a short squeeze sent Bitcoin price within a hair of the $40,000 level.
A renewed sense of optimism has returned to the cryptocurrency ecosystem on July 26 as Bitcoin’s (BTC) recovery above $38,900 has sparked a market-wide rally in the altcoins.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the top movers over the past 24 hours are Amp (AMP), Venus (XVS) and Reserve Rights (RSR).
Five out of the top seven gainers fall into the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, a possible sign that DeFi may be heating up for another major run in 2021.
AMP/USD
The top performer over the past 24-hours has been Amp (AMP), a digital collateral token protocol that offers instant, verifiable assurances for any kind of value transfer.
Data from TradingView shows that after hitting a low of $0.048 on July 25, the price of AMP rallied 96% to reach an intraday high at $0.094 on July 26 as its 24-hour trading volume jumped more than 800% from an average of $20 million to $280 million.
XVS/USDT
Venus (XVS), a Binance Smart Chain-based algorithmic money market and synthetic stablecoin protocol also saw a strong breakout today.
As seen in the chart above, the price of XVS has spiked 63% from a low of $17.13 on July 25 to an intraday high at $27.95 on July 26 as its 24-hour trading volume surged by more than 600% to $180 million.
According to the latest data provided by Venus, the protocol currently has more than $3 billion in total value locked on the platform and over $1.8 billion in available liquidity.
RSR/USD
The third-biggest gainer on Monday was Reserve Rights (RSR), a dual-token stablecoin platform comprised of the Reserve stablecoin (RSV), which is backed by a basket of assets managed by smart contracts and the RSR token which helps to keep the price of RSV stable through a system of arbitrage opportunities.
