According to crypto intelligence platform Santiment, some altcoins
have been enjoying increased attention from investors over the past
few days. This comes as the crypto market continues to undergo a
positive recovery from its recent slump in the aftermath of the
Bitcoin ETF launch. These Altcoins Show Potential For More Profit:
Santiment In a post on the X platform, Santiment revealed that
three altcoins, including Chainlink (LINK), Immutable X (IMX), and
Pyth (PYTH), have become assets of mainstream interest in the past
few days. This revelation is based on their performance in
terms of Social Dominance, an indicator that compares the social
volume of a particular asset to the combined social volume of the
top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Related

Social Dominance of these three altcoins has seen a notable spike
in recent days. Interestingly, Santiment has associated this
renewed investor interest in Chainlink, Immutable X, and Pyth, with
their market cap growth in the past week. According to data from
Santiment, the valuations of LINK, IMX, and PYTH have increased by
34%, 23%, and 26%, respectively, in the last seven. The on-chain
analytics noted that the mainstream crowd discussion around these
altcoins will lead to FOMO (fear of missing out) amongst investors.
Santiment further highlighted that this FOMO can trigger high price
volatility and increased buying pressure for Chainlink, Immutable
X, and Pyth. Ultimately, this can lead to more price gains for the
three crypto assets. Chainlink Price Overview The price performance
of Chainlink in the past week has been the most impressive of the
three altcoins highlighted by Santiment. According to data from
CoinGecko, LINK’s value has jumped by more than 24% in the past
week. In a week dominated by Bitcoin’s resurgence to above $43,000,
Chainlink managed to become one of the biggest gainers in the last
seven days. The cryptocurrency’s price registered a positive run to
almost as high as $19. Related Reading: Will Bitcoin Hit $1 Million
By 2028? Experts Clash Over Bold Price Prediction As of this
writing, the Chainlink token is valued at $17.69, reflecting a 1.2%
price decline in the last 24 hours. The altcoin appears to be
witnessing some amount of downward pressure as it is struggling to
hold above the $18 level. Nevertheless, Chainlink continues to lay
a strong claim to a spot amongst the top 10 largest
cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. With a market cap of
over $10 billion, LINK ranks as the 13th-largest asset in the
cryptocurrency sector. LINK price faces resistance and stalls at
