While major cryptocurrencies like bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) are evolving into institutional-led macro assets, smaller and lesser-known coins remain as unpredictable as ever, rallying on random factors completely disconnected from the broader market.
For instance, after billionaire entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk changed his account name on X to Harry Bōlz on Tuesday, the price of the illiquid HARRYBOLZ token surged 127% against SOL, according to data source Gecko Terminal. The token has a 24-hour trading volume of just over $4 million and a market capitalization of $17.35 million.
"After @elonmusk changed his profile name to Harry Bōlz, the price of $HARRYBOLZ surged to $0.025," blockchain sleuth Lookonchain said on X, noting how a wallet named "LeBron" made $1 million trading the little-known token.
