Cryptocurrency Graveyard: 99 Out of 100 Tokens Bite the Dust, PENGU Flies 🐧💸

Key Takeaways

How many top 100 cryptocurrencies have recovered to their all-time highs?

Just one: PENGU. The remaining 99? Drowning in a sea of red, trading 30%-95% below their peaks like tragic heroes of a Tolstoyan novel. 📉

Which major cryptocurrencies are furthest from their highs?

FTX Token [FTT], Terra Luna Classic [LUNC], and Internet Computer [ICP] lead the procession to the guillotine, down 95%-99%. 👻

Galaxy Research, ever the poetic chronicler of despair, unveils crypto’s “recovery”-a tale of woe and shattered dreams.

Of the top 100 cryptos, 99 cling to life below their all-time highs. PENGU, the newborn, escapes this purgatory-a babe in the woods spared by ignorance of the 2021 apocalypse. 🍀

PENGU, the lone survivor

Behold PENGU, that plucky penguin adrift in a world of icebergs! 🐧 Launched in December 2024 via a $1.5 billion airdrop, it swims merrily at #73 by market cap. Its secret? A meme, a toy line, and TikTok fame. Walmart, of all places, sells its plushies. Capitalism’s new face, ladies and gentlemen. 🧸

Trading at $0.015 with a $900 million market cap, PENGU owes its glory not to genius but to timing. Like a child born after the war, it knows nothing of 2021’s excesses. 🎲

Crypto blue-chip devastation

Cardano? Down 80-85%. Polkadot? A ghost of itself. Chainlink, Avalanche, Uniswap-all relics of a bygone era, down 80-90%. 🪦

Bitcoin and Ethereum cling to relevance, down “only” 30-40%. Yet even these titans watch their empire shrink, as altcoins sink deeper into the abyss. 🧱

The 2021 ghost

Most peaks were carved in 2021’s fever dream. Ethereum soared to $4900 in August 2025; Bitcoin hit $126,000 in October. But time heals nothing. Four years on, the graveyard grows. 💀

FTT, LUNC, ICP? Down 95%-99%. Abandoned not by accident, but by fate. 🕯️

Will Altcoin Season ever come?

The Altcoin Season Index whispers “24”-a zombie apocalypse of Bitcoin dominance. DeFi tokens? Uniswap, Aave, Compound: down 70%-85%. TVL? Healthy. Prices? Not so much. The disconnect? A Shakespearean tragedy. 🎭

What it means

Crypto’s lesson: survival is not recovery. Even top-100 tokens crumble. Bitcoin and Ethereum endure, but their scars run deep. And PENGU? A fleeting spark in the dark. 🌟
