After the crash - a rebound. Which groups of coins have grown stronger than others

“RBC-Crypto” does not provide investment advice, the material is published solely for informational purposes. Cryptocurrency is a volatile asset that can lead to financial losses.

The CoinMarketCap catalog has over a hundred categories of cryptocurrencies — from classic DeFi and stablecoins to memes, neural networks, and hybrid tokens. We looked at which of them showed the highest growth in the last 24 hours after Trump’s announcement of a temporary tariff delay. Some groups are predictable, while others look like a pure market of temporary narratives.

Hybrid Token Standard

Hybrid tokens combine the functions of several types of crypto assets — for example, investment characteristics like those of security tokens and utility capabilities. Owners of such tokens can participate in project governance, gain access to certain platform features, or earn profits from network activity.

The category includes different types of tokens — from wrapped to stablecoins and DeFi assets. Over the course of a day, the value of such tokens has increased by an average of 19.5%. The highest growth was recorded for Monkey Pox (POX), Boxo Benz (BOZO), and Non-Playable Coin (NPC).

All listed tokens are outside the top 300 by market capitalization and trade with low liquidity. The picture in such segments can change literally within hours, so the dynamics of the categories reflect the momentary reaction of the market rather than a stable trend.

Token-2022 in the Solana ecosystem

Token-2022 is a token standard in the Solana network, launched in 2022. It expands the basic functionality of SPL tokens and allows for the implementation of additional options at the smart contract level: for example, partial concealment of transaction data, time restrictions on the transfer of tokens (vestings), and built-in mechanisms for use in games, DeFi, and metaverses.

According to data from CoinMarketCap, tokens based on this standard have increased in value by an average of 22% over the past day. Among the leaders in growth are Infinite Money Glitch (IMG), Taxpad (TAX), and catwifhat (CWIF).

Pump Fun Ecosystem

Pump.fun is a platform for creating and launching tokens on the Solana network, which has become synonymous with ultra-volatile meme coins. New coins appear here every minute, and the overwhelming majority of them survive no longer than a few hours. At the same time, it is on Pump.fun that a whole layer of cult assets has grown, which have already made it into the top 100 by market capitalization.

The segment of tokens launched through this platform has grown by an average of 23% in a day. Among the leaders are Mindscraft (MINDS), The Next Bitcoin (BUTTCOIN), and Fartcoin (FARTCOIN).

AI Memes

A category that unites meme tokens inspired by the theme of artificial intelligence. Some of these projects promise content generation — for example, memes — using AI, while the tokens themselves are used to pay for digital goods, NFTs, or access to functionality.

AI Memes remain a highly volatile segment where rises and falls alternate particularly sharply. However, over the course of a day, the category has averaged a 32% increase. Among the leaders are TRUMP GROK, DisChain (DIS), and FTC AI Agent.

Terminal of Truth

Tokens from the category Terminal of Truth (TOT) are meme coins with a narrative background. They often play on themes of information noise, the search for truth, and disinformation in the modern world. Essentially, these are the same meme tokens, but with an emphasis on ironic or conceptual plots.

Despite the controversial nature of the idea, this segment showed the highest growth — an average of 37% per day. Among the leaders are Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), Goatseus Maximus (GOAT), and Slop (SLOP).

The Categories section on CoinMarketCap is not the main showcase of the crypto market, but rather a mirror of its most chaotic and speculative layers. Here, hundreds of niche and sometimes absurd tokens are gathered, most of which are unlikely to ever make it to major exchanges or survive the current cycle. Nevertheless, this is also part of the industry — alive, unpredictable, and closely connected to community sentiments.

As the dynamics over the past day show, even such categories respond to news and the market agenda just as well as classic altcoins. And if you understand where you are and why you came there, Categories can be not only a source of hype but also a way to observe the sharpest market sentiments in real time.
