2 cryptocurrencies to reach $100 billion market cap in Q4 2024

2 cryptocurrencies to reach $100 billion market cap in Q4 2024

Cryptocurrencies experienced massive losses this week as the “September Effect” started playing out in finance markets. According to renowned cryptocurrency analysts, this recent crash could have been the last shake-out before the 2024 crypto bull run.

In this context, Finbold turned to market data to identify good projects with solid growth potential for the last quarter. For that, we looked into leading cryptocurrencies that could reach the $100 billion capitalization mark in Q4 2024.

Essentially, the market cap is one of the most used benchmarks and value indicators by cryptocurrency investors. This is because digital assets can have very different economics and supply dynamics, requiring a common ground for fundamental analyses.

Solana (SOL) could reach a $100 billion market cap in Q4 2024

First, Solana (SOL) surges as the most likely candidate to join – before the year ends – Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Tether USD (USDT) among cryptocurrencies with more than $100 billion market cap.

As of this writing, its native token, SOL, trades at $129, with a $60.20 billion capitalization. For Solana to reach this 2024 crypto bull run target, it would require a 66% increase in value.

However, Solana is known for having one of the largest linear supply inflations in the industry. This characteristic will increase the current circulating supply of 467.5 million SOL, contributing to the market cap.

In particular, Solana’s circulating supply is expected to increase by 7.42 million SOL in the following 100 days. This is considering a daily emission of approximately 74,200 SOL, according to data from TokenUnlocksApp.

Therefore, Solana will need to trade above $210 by the end of 2024 to have a $100 billion market cap. If this happens, SOL will reward today’s investors with over 60% gains.

Circle USD stablecoin (USDC) in the 2024 crypto bull run

Another cryptocurrency with a high potential of attracting more demand and, thus, market value is the stablecoin Circle USD (USDC). The USDT alternative has gained market share and adoption throughout the years, intensifying in an expected 2024 crypto bull run.

Right now, USDC is a $35 billion coin running in dozens of blockchains. Each USDC is programmed always to follow the U.S. dollar price, but the market cap can still increase.

Every time someone exchanges U.S. dollars for USDC with Circle, the company issues new tokens and makes them circulate. Hence, having a growing market cap, following a growing circulating supply as demand increases.

Overall, analysts use stablecoins capitalization as a way to measure how much money from traditional finance is entering crypto. In a bull run, USDC, USDT, and other stablecoins’ capitalization is expected to grow as capital inflows to the space.

USDC reaching a $100 billion market cap in the 2024 crypto bull run is not only possible but likely. This would represent a three times growth for this asset alone, which has been approaching the USDT popularity and liquidity.

With that, other cryptocurrencies should benefit amid investors’ reallocation from the stablecoin to build their ideal portfolios, as Finbold suggested.
