📊 Popularity List Analysis

Today’s popularity list clearly shows a trend of precious metal tokens and derivatives trading:

  • Top 3 drivers of popularity: PAXG (on-chain gold) continues to surge, influenced by the global spot gold breaking through $5,100, central banks in multiple countries increasing holdings, and the market capitalization of tokenized gold soaring to $5.12 billion. ETH and HYPE follow closely, mainly driven by the explosive growth of Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 perpetual contract mechanism (open interest reaching a record high of $793 million).

  • Emerging small-cap coins: Coins like PIPPIN (+63.87%), PTB (+29.85%), OWL (+27.93%) lead the gains, reflecting a market risk appetite rebound and increased capital participation.

  • Derivatives trading activity: The total liquidation in the past 24 hours reached $299 million, with both long and short positions liquidated, indicating intense market competition among participants.

📊 This ranking is based on CoinMarketCap’s trend ranking, reflecting user attention and search activity over the past 24 hours.
