CORE Leads the Market Charge With a 313% Rally
CORE, the native coin of the CoreDao ecosystem, is the best performer amongst the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market cap in the last 24 hours. In a sea of red, CORE is the green that lightens the market.
The coin added 38% to its value in the last couple of hours, outperforming the broader crypto market in the process. In the last seven days, CORE added over 300% to its value, catapulting it into the top 50 half of the market.
Thanks to its ongoing rally, CORE is now the 42nd largest cryptocurrency by market cap. At press time, CORE is trading at $3.81 per coin and has a market cap of $3.3 billion.
The primary catalyst behind CORE’s rally is the upcoming Bitcoin halving event. CoreDAO is a Bitcoin-powered, EVM-compatible blockchain that combines delegated Proof-of-Work and delegated Proof-of-Stake.
The CoreDAO ecosystem is excited about the upcoming Bitcoin halving as it could lead to further adoption of the CoreDAO blockchain.

With the broader market underperforming, the total cryptocurrency market cap has dropped to $2.5 trillion, down by 6% in the last 24 hours.
