Four altcoins with a market capitalization of less than $ 1 billion rose exponentially in seven days, while larger cryptocurrencies ended with modest price movements in 2021.

Last week’s big gains were noted by Railgun (RAIL), an Ethereum-based project that aims to ensure privacy for trading and lending on decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

RAIL rose from a 7-day low of $ 1.33 to an all-time high of $ 4.15 on December 31, up 212%.

Another altcoin that also took part in the rally is the layer 2 scaling solution Metis.

Metis aims to offer lower costs and faster transaction times than Ethereum while ensuring the security of the leading smart contract platform.

METIS has exploded from a 7-day low of $ 85.33 to an all-time high of $ 265, a gain of 211%.

LIT contributes to equally impressive achievements – an ERC-20 token and a native asset in the Litentry network that aggregates cross-chain identities. The LIT rose from a 7-day low of $ 0.001 to a high of $ 0.003, representing a remarkable 200% rally.

Not to be missed is OpenDAO (SOS), a token to support artists and creators on the OpenSea NFT marketplace. SOS was discontinued last week according to the ETH issued by market users.

SOS has increased 320% since it was dropped and is currently seeing a 170% increase in the last seven days.
