As major cryptos stage a comeback on Friday, but remain locked within recent intra-week ranges, traders are instead turning to on-chain micro-cap meme coin markets as they hunt for top crypto gainers today.
Bitcoin (BTC) pushed 4% higher on Friday to challenge $60,000.
Other major cryptos also rallied, with Ethereum (ETH), BNB (BNB) and Solana (SOL) gaining 2-4% in the past 24 hours, per CoinMarketCap.
But most major coins remain locked well within recent weekly ranges. Friday’s rally thus won’t be viewed as a major or important shift in sentiment in the market.

But locked liquidity doesn’t mean the new crypto isn’t a scam, however.

Their low liquidity means sudden price reversals can swiftly come.
Indeed, that appears to have been seen with IGGY.
The token is already down 90% from earlier session highs. It could soon hit zero.
A Trump-themed token called BigTrump (BIGT) is up over 4,000% in the past 24 hours, per DEXScreener. That makes it one of the top crypto gainers today.
That has seen its market cap reach above $690,000. That sounds impressive, but BIGT is down around 75% from earlier session highs.
