VeChain is leading the year by a landslide. Year-to-date, the coin is up 181.85%. These percentage gains are not as significant as the percentage gains we saw at the end of last year – the market was surging (perhaps due to a fear-of-missing-out (FOMO)) as crypto was somETHing that everyone was talking about. Investors flooded the market to avail of a great investment opportunity. Despite lesser gains so far, these coins still remain established market leaders. However, It seems that there will be aLTCoins on the market this year that will see gains in the 10,000 percentile and may just rival VeChain.
The coins rebranding is set for next week, and there is a lot of buzz in the cryptocurrency community surrounding the event. The program behind the coin is already functioning and being used globally, which is unusual seeing as it’s ICO only occurred in August of last year. An already established and functioning product is a major reason as to why this coin has propelled thus far.
Many price predictions anticipate this coin to reach $10 a coin, at the end of Q1. At press time, VEN is trading at $6.35 a coin, up 13.81%, in 24 hours time. You can trade for VeChain on Huobi, Binance, Lbank, Gate.io, Liqui, HitBTC and Kucoin.
