Small-Cap Altcoins Outshine Bitcoin By Five Times in H1 2020<\/h2>\n

Data from the first half of the year of cryptocurrency market price action shows how Bitcoin stacks up against small, mid, and large-cap altcoins.<\/p>\n

According to intel from Arcane Research<\/a>, Bitcoin grew by 27% in H1 2020. Meanwhile, large-cap alts like Ethereum, XRP, and Litecoin grew by 29%.<\/p>\n

In the same timeframe, mid-cap alts such as VeChain or Dogecoin have nearly doubled<\/a> Bitcoin’s growth at 54%. However, it’s small-cap altcoins that significantly outperformed Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

The small-cap index grew by a staggering 141%, or over five times more growth than Bitcoin’s meager 27%.<\/p>\n

The growth is fueled both by a fall in BTC dominance, and several small-cap altcoins setting new all-time highs recently.<\/p>\n

These low liquidity crypto assets take far less capital to move the needle, causing them to break out from downtrend resistance ahead of other crypto assets.<\/p>\n

This type of price action is all said to be part of a greater crypto market cycle. Profit-taking in BTC rallies moves into small-cap altcoins. Once gains have been realized, profits flow into mid-caps, then large-cap altcoins as we are now seeing with XRP<\/a>.<\/p>\n
