Alt Coins Outperform in November Frenzy

November was a big month for crypto. An equal-weight index* of the Top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap posted a nearly 80% gain in November, just narrowly missing the top spot for a month's performance in the last 5 years.

Notably, this broader universe of projects outperformed Bitcoin on its own by over 40% (the 4th best level of outperformance in a month in the last 5 years). Impressively, this performance for Bitcoin and alts resulted in record increases in market capitalization, with Bitcoin’s market cap growing over $500bn, and the other 99 projects growing by a combined $434bn, for a total market cap increase of nearly $1trn.

We continue to see a positive setup for crypto over the short and long term, with an unprecedented combination of potential regulatory clarity, improving fundamentals, and growing institutional ownership.
