Ethereum, HYPE, and RAVE lead the altcoin march

Ethereum reasserted itself above the $2,200 line after a daily rise of about 2.3%. BNB also moved higher beyond $600, while HYPE climbed more than 5% and reclaimed the $40 threshold, as if the market could be persuaded by a chorus of numbers to forget its melancholy for a moment.

RAVE delivered the loudest note among the top gainers. The token jumped 100% in a single day and extended its weekly gain to about 700%, which pushed it into the top 100 assets by market value.

DASH also posted a sharp advance and moved above $45 after a 13% gain. SIREN added 10% and returned to the $0.80 level, a modest triumph in the long diary of prices.

The total crypto market value increased by more than $100 billion from last week. It stood at $2.530 trillion at press time, a figure that tells of broader strength across the sector, or perhaps of the crowd’s feverish appetite for spectacle.
