Dogecoin and Solana lead among cryptocurrencies gains

Investors' expectations of Fed monetary easing in 2024 and the strong rise of Bitcoin, which is trading above $43,000, have investors accumulating altcoins again. Among the strongest of these today were Dogecoin, which today marks the 10th anniversary of its creation (December 6, 2013), and Solana.

  • Dogecoin recently hit a new address record with a non-zero DOGE balance of 5.3 million holders. Some crypto industry speculators are beginning to speculate about Solana's potential surpassing of Ethereum, and Santiago Santos of Web3 technology firm ParaFi Capital estimated the chance of such a scenario at around 25%.
  • However, it is difficult to attribute the euphoric increases to anything other than the sudden change in sentiment and 'greed' of investors, who are beginning to price in the effect of the planned halving and the impact of the potential acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs on the industry as a whole.
