BTC, ETH, & DOGE – need to catch up
Cardano has been on a bullish surge in the wake of Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund which also indicates its growing institutional demand. Ethereum, which is claimed to be the most reliable altcoin by the ETH community could not even secure the first runner-up position, despite gaining 225 percent till now in 2021 and gained popularity with the impressive 79 percent increase in investors holding the asset. Whereas, the controversial meme coin and Elon Musk’s favorite, Dogecoin came in second and became the second most held coin.
