Notcoin’s Value Soars by 11%, Almost Overtakes VET, MKR, and OP

After surging double-digits, Notcoin’s market cap has reached $1.9 billion, ranking the recently launched coin of the viral tap-to-earn game 49th among largest cryptocurrencies by market cap. In comparison, VeChain (VET), Maker (MKR) and Optimism (OP) have all declined over the past 24 hours, dropping by 6%, 2% and 7% respectively. All three coins have a market cap of just over $2 billion according to data from CoinMarketCap.

Notcoin’s 24-hour trading volume of $1.2 billion only lags that of Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, Solana and stablecoins USDT, USDC and FDUSD. NOT price rose to an all-time high of $0.028 on June 2, although it retreated to $0.019 amid downside pressure across the broader crypto market. Currently, the top trending options include Hamster Kombat and Yescoin.

For Notcoin, the biggest pull is its first mover advantage in the Telegram ecosystem. Growth for The Open Network (TON) in the past few months has also reflected in Notcoin, with Telegram’s 900 million user base and increasing support for crypto on the platform fueling interest and growth. Metrics such as daily active addresses for TON have risen sharply in the past three months.

This trajectory is likely to drive similar trends for Notcoin, which is looking beyond Tap2Earn for growth.
