Grayscale Research updated its ‘Top 20’ cryptos for Q1 2025

Grayscale’s research arm has updated its list of the top 20 cryptocurrency assets to watch in Q1 2025. Based on several factors, Grayscale Research has updated its list of cryptocurrencies with potential in Q1 2025. The list features six new diversified tokens, including HyperLiquid ( HYPE ), Ethena Labs ( ENA ), Virtuals Protocol ( VIRTUAL ), Juputer ( JUP ), Jito ( JITO ), and Grass ( GRASS ). Chainlink ( LINK ), Helium, and Optimism ( O P) reentered the top 20, while Celo was excluded from the updated list. Grayscale Research considered several metrics, including network adoption, growth catalysts, fundamentals, tokenomics, supply data, and potential tail risks, to compile its “Top 20” list.
