Forbes has identified 10 cryptocurrencies it considers worth investing in, using a screen based on token utility or store-of-value characteristics, as well as metrics including seven-day performance and 24-hour trading volume. According to the list, every selected asset has a market capitalization above $5 billion. The tokens named were BTC, ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, TRON (TRX), HYPE, RAIN, LEO and Zcash (ZEC).
Forbes said Bitcoin and Ether are widely viewed as the crypto sector’s “gold and silver,” with current market capitalizations of about $1.289 trillion and $216.47 billion, respectively. Combined, the two account for roughly 68% of the broader crypto market, according to the report.
In its methodology, Forbes said it focused on each asset’s core use case. It excluded stablecoins, wrapped crypto assets, liquid staking tokens and meme coins, and instead prioritized projects with a clear investment case that could gain value as adoption and practical utility increase.
