Most altcoins have traded higher in the past 24 hours, with Solana (SOL), Filecoin (FIL) and Litecoin (LTC) among the top gainers. According to data from CoinMarketCap, SOL, FIL and LTC are all double-digits up as of writing.

Elsewhere in the market, the crypto project Bitcoin Dogs continued its stunning presale run as the total amount raised rose to over $5.6 million.

Solana, Filecoin and Litecoin among top gainers

Solana price

Solana currently stands as one of the biggest gainers on the day, with its price up more than 17% to break to a new yearly high above $130. The cryptocurrency has seen a daily trading volume of over $7 billion and ranks 8th among today’s top outperformers.

SOL price is rising amid a resurgence in Solana-based meme coin Bonk. After being briefly flipped by Pepe, Bonk has skyrocketed more than 60% in the past 24 hours to retake third spot among largest meme coins by market cap.

Filecoin price

Filecoin’s price has rallied higher since February 18, 2024 when the decentralized file storage network announced integration with Solana. While the collaboration largely helped Solana’s quest to strengthen its network, with decentralized storage capabilities and accessibility, it’s also highlighted Filecoin’s growing adoption across the ecosystem.

Today saw the price of Filecoin jump more than 16% to near $9, with over $765 million traded in 24 hours. FIL price is up 60% in the past month.

Litecoin price

Litecoin was 14% up on Thursday afternoon ET time as fresh buying pushed LTC to above $83 on major exchanges. The cryptocurrency that has lagged Bitcoin significantly over the past year had recorded a daily trading volume of more than $1 billion as it sat among the top 10 gainers on the day.

With price above $80, there’s a likelihood bulls could strengthen to the psychological $100 level before targeting more upside post-Bitcoin’s halving.

Bitcoin Dogs’ big game plan: Game and NFT on Bitcoin

Bitcoin Dogs stands out as one of the new projects in the Bitcoin ecosystem generating the most interest. Other than its exciting game and NFT collection, there’s a massive opportunity for growth amid Bitcoin’s expanding layer-2 and Ordinals landscape.

The nascent ecosystem has seen bullish forecasts from market experts and industry personalities. TRON’s Justin Sun sees a huge potential for the Bitcoin L2 space, an outlook that crypto mining giant Marathon Digital shared as it unveiled its Bitcoin layer-2 network Anduro.

As the Bitcoin Dog’s whitepaper outlines, the project targets market launch for $0DOG after the presale and key product milestones throughout Q2 and Q3, 2024. The NFT debut with the 10k Ordinals NFT Club, the game beta, and P2E partnerships all in the pipeline.

Bitcoin Dogs presale ends in 14 days

Bitcoin Dogs is a new crypto project that is seeing unprecedented interest from investors. The project launched its native token $0DOG on February 14, 2024 as the world’s first BRC-20 presale on Bitcoin.

The 30-day presale has quickly crossed the $5 million mark, with early adopters allocating over $5.6 million as of Thursday. The fast-paced presale sees the price of the token increase every three days, offering clarity to ICO participants.

900 million $0DOG are minted, 90% or 810 million are for the public.

With price rising to $0.0281 and set to continue until March 15, it’s a significant two weeks ahead for dog lovers all over cryptosphere and beyond.
