The price of Ethereum has increased by 11% in the past 24 hours to highs of $2,640. The rise caps off a 24% increase in the past week.
Ethereum has brought several coins that use its smart contracts along for the ride. Most of the top decentralized finance (DeFi) tokens have also increased in price in the past day.
Uniswap (UNI), which has a market cap of $15.6 billion and is the largest DeFi token by this measure, has risen by 12% in the past day. At a price of $27, the coin, which powers the governance protocol of the eponymous decentralized exchange, has increased by nearly 28% during the past week.
Chainlink (LINK)—UNI’s closest competitor with a market cap of $13.4 billion—has increased by 15% today and by a staggering 32% during the past week. Currently, LINK, which powers a decentralized oracle network, is worth $31.
Other DeFi tokens have also grown in the past week. Aave (AAVE) and Maker (MKR) have increased by just over 10% in the past day and by 6% and 1% over the past seven days, respectively.
The crypto market’s largest DeFi tokens might be going up, but they’re not the only cryptocurrencies that are on the rise.
Despite renewed scrutiny on its carbon footprint, Bitcoin is also increasing in value. The flagship cryptocurrency—currently priced at $36,900—has increased by almost 6% during the last week and 4% during the last 24 hours.
XRP, the sixth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, has surged in price in the past few days. Now valued at $1.02, XRP has grown by 15% today and 27% during the last week.
XRP’s rise follows Ripple’s recent legal victory against the US Securities and Exchange Commission, which in December 2020 filed a lawsuit alleging that Ripple raised $1.3 billion by selling XRP in unregistered securities sales.
On Sunday, Ripple, the payments company whose co-founders created XRP, stopped the regulator from accessing records of advice that Ripple has sought or received about the legal status of XRP.

Popular Solana token launchpad Pump.fun debuted its token on Monday, immediately entering the top 65 tokens by market cap. It followed a massive $600 million initial coin offering, or ICO, that sold out in just 12 minutes over the weekend. Still, PUMP remains below BONK in terms of market cap, a meme coin project that is butting heads with Pump.fun as it steals Solana launchpad market share. At the time of writing, Pump.fun sits at a market capitalization of $2 billion, according to CoinGecko, m...
The Pudgy Penguins-themed meme coin, PENGU, has surged over 100% in the past week, fueled by ETF chatter and a push on social media—but analysts are questioning whether the rally is built to last. PENGU is currently trading at just under $0.031, up 9.7% in the last 24 hours and 101% on the week, according to CoinGecko data. The rally comes just weeks after the U.S. SEC added new filings to its docket, including a 19b-4 application from Cboe to allow trading of the Canary PENGU ETF. Canary Capita...
The price of XRP climbed above $3.00 on Monday, hitting a six-month high as investor optimism about the asset’s usefulness and more favorable regulatory environment rose. The asset may also benefit from tokenization trends over the coming years, Matt Kreiser, an analyst at crypto analytics platform Messari, told Decrypt. He noted that XRP’s price movements over the past week are reminiscent of strength seen late last year. “It’s a resurgence of what happened in the fall after the election of Tr...
