Crypto markets are in flux today with a handful of crypto's outperforming the top 20. DASH, Dogecoin, Bitshares & Waves are the main winners over the last 24 hours.





1. DASH

After crossing its previous market capitalization high of USD 66,000,000; DASH is now chasing the psychological barrier of USD 70 million. As we have mentioned in recent posts about DASH, the strong economic fundamentals of the coin is the main driver of the price increase. The macroeconomic situation does not look to reverse itself anytime soon, so we feel DASH is one of the strongest coins on the market.





2. Dogecoin

It seems that Dogecoin is overdue for a major pump if you follow the reasoning of large Twitter traders. But having slipped out of the top 10 over the past few months, Dogecoin is striving to get back to its rightful place. Judging from the charts, DOGE normally pumps heavily every 6-8 months, but will this pattern continue.





3. Bitshares

Many observers had anticipated Bitshares pumping due to its link with STEEM. But the pump magic pushing STEEM to the top 5 did not provide the impetus need to also bring Bitshares along, until today. Bitshares is up a healthy 5.75% today on USD 170,000 trading volume.





4. Waves

Waves has been dogged by issues since its official launch. These issues have compounded with the coin underperforming its peers. Having raised more than 30,000 BTC, many expected Waves to be a top 5 coin. But Waves has struggled in the top 10-20 range. The coin is up over 5% today with modest volumes.
