Flying altcoins with Bitcoin in the center as the leader.

Altcoins Heat Up – Sandbox (SAND), XLM, And ETH Lead Social Discussions As Traders Eye Under-the-Radar Opportunities Despite $518M Liquidations

While Bitcoin has recently retreated from its all-time highs, the cryptocurrency market continues to buzz with activity, particularly around Altcoins. According to Santiment, a leading on-chain analytics platform, social sentiment is driving interest in specific altcoins, especially those related to the metaverse and emerging technologies.

Metaverse Tokens Lead The Charge

Santiment’s social sentiment tracker has identified Sandbox (SAND), Stellar (XLM), and Ether (ETH) as the top three altcoins currently trending in social discussions. The platform attributes the surge in SAND’s popularity to a renewed interest in metaverse investments, with investors growing increasingly confident in the token’s future.

XLM, on the other hand, has gained traction among Korean investors following a recent political event. Social media platforms are abuzz with discussions about the token’s potential price surges and market analysis.

Ether, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency, continues to be a hot topic, with users comparing its performance to other large-cap coins. Many are expressing bullish sentiments about Ethereum’s future, particularly given favorable market conditions.

A Volatile Market

Despite the excitement surrounding altcoins, the broader cryptocurrency market has experienced significant volatility in recent days. Over $500 million worth of crypto positions were liquidated in the past 24 hours, primarily affecting altcoins.
