Markets have been experiencing a lot of turmoil lately, mostly due to policies not related to cryptocurrencies. If there’s a single trend that runs through many different coin prices, it’s that the market is bouncing back after the damage done by the recent tariffs.

In this article, we’ll go over a few altcoins that have been trending lately, and that can be interesting investments for crypto traders, some in the mid-term and some in the short term, as they are rising fast. Some of these coins are overlooked in the market assessments, which are too focused on novelty meme coins.

Qubetics ($TICS)

Qubetics was established in 2024, and it’s mostly praised because of what it has to offer in terms of blockchain interoperability. It has raised over $16 million in presale and made a name for itself in the niche market of those knowledgeable about blockchain tech.

The biggest advantage for everyday users is the privacy features Qubetics brings to the table with decentralized VPNs. The development team is also very active, and new features are often added. Many see this altcoin as the one with the most long-term appeal.

Litecoin (LTC)

Litecoin has had a slight downturn lately, as have many other crypto coins, but it’s still going strong with a capitalization of over $5.78 billion and a circulating supply nearing its maximum cap of 84 million coins.

LTC is especially well known for its fast transfers, which have been used by businesses ranging from Litecoin casinos to shipping and delivery. It also offers advanced security measures, and it’s one of the altcoins that’s almost always liquid and easy to trade. Analysts predict that Litecoin could trade between $65.52 and $75.49 by the end of the month.

Cardano (ADA)

Cardano has experienced a wave of whale accumulation recently. Large holders bought as much as $90 million in ADA. This usually means they plan to hold on to the asset for a long time since that’s how most big investors approach cryptos. It’s a sign of confidence that has led some mid-size investors to buy ADA as well.

The platform is mostly focused on smart contract abilities and is known as one of the best blockchain platforms from the standpoint of development expertise. It rebounded at a rate of 25 percent from the market crash in early April.

Toncoin (TON)

Toncoin is a coin by the team behind the Telegram chat app. The app surged in popularity as a way to follow organic content from Eastern Europe, and the coin took off as well. At this point, it’s experiencing a whale accumulation of about 140 percent. It’s a sign of long-term support.

The coin also uses layer-1 blockchain, which developers love for its speed and cost-efficiency. The price of TON could reach $3.85 by April 25, 2025, which would mean an increase of over 30 percent in less than a month. It also didn’t experience much of a downward spiral during the latest troubles in the market.

ApeCoin (APE)

APE is a coin backed by the Bored Ape Yacht Club ecosystem, which means it’s solidified in the NFT market and the metaverse. It dipped in the market for a while, but the increased interest in Web 3.0 and gaming has put it on the map again.

Ape also has a strong community backing, which is common with the coins that put a unique spin on their features and have a clear identity. ApeCoin (APE) is trading at approximately $0.46, with a 24-hour trading volume of around $39.7 million and a market capitalization of about $345 million. It could reach $1.43 by the end of May.

Immutable X (IMX)

IMX is a coin that’s experiencing a boom in the world of gaming and NFTs. It was initially built as a Layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum. The main advantage of using IMX is that it allows zero gas fees when minting.

The coin has also gone into partnerships with GameStop and Illuvium, and it’s creating new projects almost every week. Soon, it will become a favorite platform for gaming studios looking to include cryptos in their games. ​As of April 20, 2025, Immutable X (IMX) is trading at approximately $0.47, with a market capitalization of around $856 million.

Filecoin (FIL)

Filecoin was the original coin used for a decentralized storage network, but then it fell out of favor for a while. Experts claim that it’s back and that it’s trending. It updated certain protocols, and the improvements are now compatible with Ethereum. Many Web 3.0 apps are finding a use for it.

Additional improvements make it easier for developers to store data off-chain. That’s due to the integration of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). ​As of April 20, 2025, Filecoin (FIL) is trading at approximately $2.63. It’s an increase of 5.7 daily.
