Table of Crypto performance May 29

GENERAL OVERVIEW

The last week was a moderately good one for the market, which is currently in a lateral/consolidation phase in which some of the altcoins are significantly recovering ground with respect to BTC and BTC itself is seemingly still experiencing an uptrend.

Still, Bitcoin seemingly did not care, closing at 9’445 USD,  down 2.41% w/w.

All in all, BTC bested the majority of our selection of top crypto projects, but still, some managed to overperform it so significantly that the overall result favors the top projects’ index. On average, results ranged from -1.86% to +20.88% w/w with a median value of +1.43% w/2.

On the other hand, Ripple (XRP) was the worst project in our sample, despite not even losing 2% of its value during the week.

In a wider period, ADA keeps being the best performer, with this week’s result making it a clear lead over its peers, distancing the second place holder NEO (NEO) of circa 20 percentage points in terms of return.

weekly price frequency distribution crypto bitcoin 29 may

We proceed to have a look at the frequency distributions of the coins’ price in terms of satoshis to have a look at the relative performances. ADA and ETH are trading at their highest level of the week relative to BTC, with the former actually trading at the far right tail of the distribution, where it would need a consolidation in order to keep the current price level as the new “fair”.

In a wider period, ADA has no rival as far as relative positioning with respect to BTC regards.
