Despite today’s bearish downturn in the crypto market, a few altcoins were still able to turn a profit. These assets’ strong upward momentum managed to challenge the overall market sentiment by defying broader selling pressure and attracting increased investor interest, signaling resilience amid the current volatility.
Hyperliquid – $HYPER
The native token of the decentralized perpetual exchange Hyperliquid stood out as one of the few cryptocurrencies to hold a profit on April 10. In total $HYPER saw a 2.19% increase in value, reaching its highest value in the month, so far.
The recent gains add up to an incredible 21.35% increase in the week – allowing Hyperliquid to revert its losses and hit a 1.35% increase over the last 30 days. Currently, $HYPER trades at $14.27 per token, with a market capitalization of $4.67 billion.
AB Token – $AB
