Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Hedera, Altcoin & Crypto – European Wrap 3 December

Trending altcoins: Hedera, VeChain and Algorand extend rally by posting double-digit gains

Three trending altcoins – Hedera (HBAR), VeChain (VET), and Algorand (ALGO) – post double-digit gains on Tuesday after surging last week, benefiting from the recent consolidation of Bitcoin prices. Historically, altcoins outperform whenever Bitcoin takes a breather after a significant rally as profits rotate into smaller-cap coins, which can be seen in the recent surge in these altcoins. The technical outlook suggests that the bulls still have steam to push these three meme coins for extra double-digit gains, although momentum indicators are in overbought levels.
