StakeLayer up by over 250% amidst market downturn: DMT and THL up by double digits

by

As an analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial markets, I must admit that the current crypto market landscape is reminiscent of a rollercoaster ride. Amidst the general downward trend, it’s intriguing to see tokens like StakeLayer and Thala surging significantly, defying the overall market cap drop.

Despite a downturn in the market, StakeLayer and Thala, along with Dream Machine Token, have seen impressive gains, with StakeLayer increasing more than 250% and Thala and Dream Machine Token rising significantly in double-digit percentages.

The crypto market cap has dropped by over 1.5% in the last 24 hours. As per CoinMarketCap data, it currently stands at $2.17 trillion.

As a researcher diving into the cryptocurrency market, I’ve noticed an interesting contrast between the performance of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), both of which are shedding value in single digits currently. However, it’s worth highlighting that the Stakelayer token has experienced a remarkable surge, climbing over 250% during this same period. This could potentially indicate untapped potential within the Stakelayer ecosystem.

Stakelayer market cap eyes $50 million with the pump

Data from CoinGecko reveals interesting price movement for the cross-chain staking and restaking platform’s token. The token has pumped from a 24 hour low of $0.00344 to a high of $0.001489.

At the moment I’m observing a dip in the momentum of the rally, with the token currently trading at $0.01299. Just a short while ago, StakeLayer reached its peak, but it has since dropped more than 27% from that record high.

In the past day, the token secured the title of the biggest winner on CoinGecko. Examining their Twitter account shows that the team recently unveiled a buyback and destruction plan, which might explain the token’s sudden price increase.

Thala and Dream Machine Token surge double digits

It’s worth noting that within the same period, Thala (THL) and Dream Machine Token (DMT) experienced significant gains. According to CoinGecko, the price of THL increased more than 18.5%, and DMT saw a rise of approximately 20%.

Despite the specific cause for DMT‘s price increase remaining uncertain, it appears that the rise in THL‘s price might be due to the price surge of Aptos (APT). Thala Labs is a protocol within an ecosystem that facilitates activities such as borrowing, lending, trading, staking, and validating APT.

The significant increase in APT‘s value, pushing it up to $10.27 from a weekly minimum of $7.87, appears to be the main reason behind this price rise. Over the past month, THL has experienced an impressive growth of more than 71%.

Over the past week, the value of this token has experienced a notable increase. Its price peaked at $0.6354, rising significantly from its previous low of $0.4228.
