The cryptocurrency market is going steep. The major cryptocurrency Bitcoin has increased by over 40% this year alone. The last week was particularly important. The BTC has crossed a psychologically important $10,000 mark. Other cryptocurrencies are also gaining and are showing tremendous improvement.
This week, these are the top 5 cryptocurrencies that performed very well. They were able to grow by 69% on average. Much of the price gains are likely due to the generally positive sentiment in the crypto space.

4. Hedera hashgraph +61%
Hedera Hashgraph is not based on blockchain, but a new type of database structure. The so-called Gossip protocol (gossip, gossip) is intended to form the consensus. Every node that sends a message,sends it from whom it was received. It turned out that the consensus mechanism cannot work alone. That’s why it was expanded with a kind of proof of stake.
A council of companies votes on certain things. The HBAR token suffered severe losses after the ICO. This week, however, the token displayed strength. The reason for this is probably a reset after the huge losses. Hedera Hashgraph has strong marketing and is listed on the largest stock exchanges. Even the most critical analysts did not expect the project to crash so much.
