Crypto analyst Darkfost said mid- and small-cap digital assets have posted the strongest market cap growth since late August, with the gap between their monthly average market capitalization and annual average continuing to widen. That ratio has now reached 41%, according to the analyst. By comparison, the same reading stands at about 7% for Bitcoin and 3.5% for large-cap crypto assets. Darkfost said the setup is relatively uncommon because Bitcoin usually leads the market in most cycles, citing the move that followed the end of the 2023 bear market as an example. He also noted that smaller-cap assets tend to be more sensitive to market shifts, which means the trend could reverse quickly.
