??Governance proposals and layer-two launches provide a boost to altcoins
Bullish sentiment is on the rise on Sept. 14 as the price of Bitcoin (BTC) climbed higher throughout the morning and now takes aim at the $47,000 level.
The building momentum also had a positive effect on altcoins and a handful of tokens posted double-digit gains.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the biggest gainers over the past 24 hours were Rari Governance Token (RGT), Curve (CRV) and Synthetix Network (SNX).
RGT holders vote on the project’s first DAO proposal
The Rari Governance Token is the native token of Rari Capital, a non-custodial decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol that offers users a way to autonomously trade crypto assets and earn a yield.
According to data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro, market conditions for RGT have been favorable for some time.
The VORTECS Score, exclusive to Cointelegraph, is an algorithmic comparison of historical and current market conditions derived from a combination of data points including market sentiment, trading volume, recent price movements and Twitter activity.
As seen in the chart above, the VORTECS Score for RGT began to pick up on Sept. 9 and climbed to a high of 85 on Sept. 10, just one hour before its price began to increase by 57% over the next three days.
The initial spike in momentum for RGT came following a Coinbase listing and the second wave of price gains seen on Sept. 13 occurred after the protocol launched voting for its first on-chain DAO proposal.
Curve launches on Arbitrum
The Curve DAO Token is the native token of the Curve protocol, a decentralized exchange for stablecoins that focuses on providing on-chain liquidity using advanced bonding curves.
VORTECS data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro began to detect a bullish outlook for CRV on Sept. 9, prior to the recent price rise.
As seen in the chart above, the VORTECS Score for CRV spiked into the green zone on Sept. 9 and registered a high of 75 one hour before the price increased by 42% over the next four days.
The boost in momentum for CRV seen on Sept. 13 came as a result of the announcement that the Curve protocol had launched on the Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution Arbitrum.
