2025 has made one thing clear: performance doesn’t always belong to the most famous names.

This year, the spotlight has moved to faster, bolder players.

MYX, BCH, ZEC, ZBCN, ZORA, and XMR posted strong gains—driven by fresh narratives, real usage, and market attention finally catching up.

Meanwhile, giants like BTC, ETH and BNB remain steady. Not explosive, but essential—more like old foundations that keep the whole structure standing.

In crypto 2025, performance is about momentum and context, not just market cap.

Small caps can sprint.

Large caps keep the gravity.
