Crypto Top 5: The Altcoins That Kicked Off December With A Bang

Several altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin in gains -- is the altseason underway or just around the bend? (Credit: Pixabay)

KEY POINTS

  • $XRP hit $2.80 at one point on Monday as it fueled its growth on the retreat of other major crypto
  • In terms of gains, TRX performed at the same level as $BTC in the last 30 days
  • $XLM is on a staggering 528% spike in the past month, and it's been dubbed a 'moon resident'
  • $AVAX was steadily rising in recent weeks and finally broke $50 on Monday
  • $LTC is expected to repeat its 2017 pump but on a much bigger scale

Altcoins have been on a spectacular move since Bitcoin passed the $99,000 mark, and some of them are expected to lead the impending altcoin season that could drive more interest in cryptocurrencies beyond the king of all crypto, BTC.
