Following yesterday\u2019s positive start to the week<\/a> crypto markets have continued to rally adding another $8 billion to total market capitalization. Ethereum started the run but EOS is today\u2019s moon shot as it surges 30%.<\/p>\n EOS has been a train over the past 24 hours pumping from $2.90 to an intraday high of $3.80 resulting in a 30% gain in a single day. It has since pulled back a little but is still the best performing altcoin in the top one hundred at the time of writing.<\/p>\n Daily volume has also surged from $950 million to over $2.2 billion as fomo fervor grips day traders. It is the highest volume since June 2017 when the token traded at over $10. According to Coinmarketcap.com<\/a> the Bit-Z exchange has had the most EOS trade with almost 20% of the total in BTC and USDT pairs.<\/p>\n Today\u2019s big pump pushes EOS to a 2019 high and the highest price it has traded at since late November when things started to dump hard across all crypto markets. Market cap for EOS is now around $3.3 billion which has allowed it to barrel past Litecoin and retake its place as the fourth largest cryptocurrency in the world. LTC has only managed to gain 7% which takes its market cap to $2.8 billion.<\/p>\n The two day crypto rally was initiated yesterday by Ethereum which surged 12%<\/a> outperforming all of the coins around it. Looking into the EOS Reddit there does not appear to be any major factor driving momentum at the moment aside from fomo. A whole bunch of comments<\/a> there shines very little light on why EOS is outperforming the rest at the moment;<\/p>\n \u201cSeriously. Literally every coin in the top 50 from CMC is up except for the stablecoins. EOS going up has nothing to do with EOS,\u201d added one poster.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n There is equally little on the Block.one twitter feed in terms of latest news or updates from the project that could be the cause of such a surge in price. The same can be said for the EOS.io Medium site. Looking at Dappradar<\/a> shows both EOS and Tron dominating the top ten dApps by user volume which is a good sign of growth for both networks.<\/p>\nEOS Top Performer in Top 100<\/h2>\n
