Top 10 CoinGecko — Top Cryptocurrencies — May 4, 2026

Ethereum (ETH) edges up 0.24% today to $2,322.10, but its weekly decline of 1.8% reveals a clear divergence from market leader Bitcoin. That 1.8% drop trails #1 Bitcoin’s weekly gain of 17.3% by a staggering 19.1 percentage points, signaling capital rotation toward the oldest asset. Ethereum’s daily uptick offers a glimmer of resilience, yet the weekly trend points to a cautious market. At $2,322.10, it remains the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, but its recent weakness contrasts sharply with Bitcoin’s strength. Investors may be awaiting a catalyst to reignite momentum.

Tether (USDT) trades at a rock-solid $0.9998, with a 24-hour change of just 0.0002% and a weekly variation of virtually zero—exactly what you expect from the world’s largest stablecoin. Its price deviation from the $1 peg is merely 0.02%, outperforming #4 XRP’s 0.38% daily swing in stability. Traders fleeing volatility consistently turn to Tether as a safe haven; on May 4, 2026, it remains the default parked asset. This unwavering peg, maintained through market turbulence, underscores its reliability in a volatile crypto ecosystem.

XRP (XRP) sits at $1.39, down 0.38% today and 2.8% over the week—a quiet retreat that leaves it in a gray zone between stable and volatile. Its weekly loss of 2.8% underperforms #2 Ethereum’s 1.8% decline by 1.0 percentage point, highlighting a lack of buying interest. The $1.39 price level represents a 2.8% weekly slide, with investors awaiting legal clarity to guide the next move. Without a catalyst, XRP drifts lower, but a resolution could quickly reverse this trend. For now, it remains a cautious hold.

BNB trades at $617.30, dropping 2.8% over the week alongside a 0.13% daily dip. The exchange token mirrors the broader market’s cautious mood.

USDC holds at $0.9999, virtually unchanged with a slight 0.0056% daily uptick. It remains the transparent alternative to Tether in the stablecoin duopoly.

Solana falls to $83.89, down 0.45% today and 3.3% this week — the worst weekly performer in the top 10. The high-speed network is losing momentum as sentiment cools.

TRON bucks the trend at $0.3385, climbing 2.6% today and 4.6% this week. Its steady rise suggests renewed interest in its low-fee ecosystem.

Figure Heloc enters the top 10 at $1.04 with zero 24-hour movement — a static asset tokenizing home equity loans, not a speculative token. Its presence marks a shift toward utility cryptos.

Dogecoin rallies to $0.1082, down 0.21% today but soaring 9.5% over the week. The meme coin is proving it still commands attention when retail gets excited.
