As Bitcoin surges amid a flurry of spot Bitcoin ETF applications from major institutional players, several altcoins have outperformed the leading cryptocurrency throughout June.
Stacks (STX) experienced a staggering 72.3% gain in the last week, followed by Pepe Coin (PEPE) and Conflux Network (CFX), posting 67.8% and 43.8% increases, respectively. While Ordinals (ORD), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), and Kadena (KDA) also experienced notable gains, ranging from 26.6% to 38.9% growth.
| Name | Symbol | 7-Day Growth (%) | 30-Day Growth (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pepe | PEPE | 67.8 | 481.92 |
| THORchain | RUNE | 19.48 | 81.52 |
| Stacks | STX | 72.32 | 25.92 |
| Bitcoin Cash | BCH | 36.32 | 23.89 |
| MakerDAO | MKR | 19.21 | 21.72 |
| Ordinals | ORDI | 38.9 | -7.29 |
| Neo | NEO | 18.8 | -14.5 |
| Conflux Network | CFX | 43.84 | -17.51 |
| Kadena | KDA | 26.62 | -17.7 |
Over the past 30 days, PEPE has surged to record an impressive 481.92% gain. RUNE, STX, and BCH also had a strong showing with 81.5%, 25.9%, and 23.9% increases, respectively.
In both the 7-day and 30-day periods, PEPE and STX have outperformed Bitcoin, while other coins like CFX and KDA have shown mixed results when comparing the two periods.
Bitcoin’s 7-day and 30-day performance was 21.1% and 12.7%, respectively.
On June 21, Bitcoin dominance reached a yearly high of 50% – signaling altcoin weakness. But has since retraced slightly to 49.5% as the market rallies.
The top 50 coins (excluding stablecoins) that have not posted double digital gains over the last seven days are LEO, TON, TRX, BNB, XRP, QNT, ATOM, LINK, and XMR.
The mixed performance above suggests strong investor sentiment toward specific altcoin projects – with only PEPE, RUNE, STX, MKR, and BCH outperforming Bitcoin over the last 30 days.
