BTC0,16%
ETH-0,5%
SOL-1,98%
XRP-1,03%
  • BTC ranks first on the list of trending cryptocurrencies.
  • ETH is in the second position.
  • Others are SOL, XRP, and PEPE.

BTC and ETH are back in the top 2 positions on the list of trending cryptocurrencies. While the positions are subject to change, the current momentum has signalled that both tokens can dominate the market when the time strikes. Other tokens on the list are SOL, XRP, and PEPE.

Meanwhile, Gold and Silver prices have plunged, with other factors coming up to possibly influence the ranks.

BTC and ETH at Top

The list essentially goes through a revision every 24 hours. For now, Bitcoin and Ethereum tokens are in the first and second positions, respectively. Their trading values are $73,546.76 and $2,266.45, applicable in the same order when the article is being published. Interestingly, the daily growth for BTC stands at 2.54% and 7.07% for ETH.

The next 3 months are expected to see further growth in their prices. For instance, a single bitcoin can weigh at $76,654, up by 4.64%. This could still be lower than the monthly growth of 8.51% to $79,485. For ETH, the monthly rise is likely to come to $2,602.34, +14.84%. And, the next 3 months could take Ether to $4,299.16, +89.72%.

That said, it is important to remember that the crypto market is volatile. It is recommended to do thorough research and risk assessment before crypto investment.

Other Cryptocurrencies on List

PEPE stands out as a frog-themed meme coin. Currently in the 5th position, PEPE is exchanging hands at $0.000003918, massively up by 15.79% over the last 24 hours. Out of the top five trending cryptocurrencies, the said meme coin has made the highest gains.

SOL is in the 3rd position, trading at $93.73, up by 6.14% in the last 24 hours. XRP, in the 4th position, has recorded a decent gain of 3.95% during the same timeline. It is trading at $1.47.

Factors at Play

Some of the factors that could impact the positions on the list are geopolitical situations, especially in the Middle East, investors diverting their attention to Gold & Silver, and the next inflation data. The geopolitical condition seems to be worsening – thereby causing a rise in oil prices for a possible global recession.

Investors could slide towards Gold and Silver because their respective values have dropped in the recent hours. Gold has lost 0.16%, and Silver has shed 1.89% of its value. An anticipation for profit could see investors move towards precious metals.

The next inflation data is expected to be on the higher side, given that oil and gas prices are showing most of their effects in the current month. The inflation rate for February 2026 was 2.40%, the same as the previous month.
