The crypto market is full of talk about which altcoins could perform the best right now. Instead of focusing only on hype, analysts are looking at real numbers — the revenue made by blockchain apps. Data from DeFiLlama shows which projects are earning the most fees over the past day and month.
Here’s a look at the top altcoins and what might be next for them.
Ethereum: Wall Street’s Favorite Altcoin
Ethereum remains a heavyweight, recording more than $6 million in revenue over 24 hours. Despite a 50% pump two months ago, ETH has cooled off, showing a flat performance in the past 30 days. That slowdown could actually set the stage for another run. Institutions like BlackRock continue to show strong interest in Ethereum, making it one of the most reliable long-term bets.
Solana: Revenue Giant, But Slowing Momentum
Solana tops the list in revenue generation, bringing in nearly $200 million over the last month. Its price has also risen 21% in 30 days, outpacing many rivals. However, with such strong gains recently, its momentum may cool in the short term. Still, Solana’s active ecosystem and high user activity keep it among the strongest projects in crypto.
Hyperliquid: The Rising Star of Perpetuals
Hyperliquid has quickly become one of the most talked-about platforms, posting double-digit growth in both weekly and monthly charts. Trading volume and revenue remain strong, placing it near the top of decentralized exchanges. With price discovery underway beyond $60, Hyperliquid is seen as a but high-risk play right now.
Binance Coin (BNB): Strong, But Near Highs
BNB has climbed 30% over the past 60 days, though only 7% in the last month. As one of the most used blockchains for transactions, BNB’s fundamentals remain solid. But since the coin is already near its all-time highs, caution is needed before chasing fresh entries.
Arbitrum: Quietly Building Strength
Arbitrum has been one of the best-performing altcoins recently, up 30% in the past month while showing steady growth in ecosystem adoption. Many see ARB as undervalued compared to its peers, making it a candidate for more gains if activity continues rising.
Avalanche: Momentum Shifting Higher
Avalanche has seen $250,000 in fees in the last day, with most of its 30-day gains coming just this past week. AVAX is up 17% in seven days. If this trend continues, analysts say it could climb further in the near term.
