Since January 2022, a $100 monthly investment in Tron’s TRX token would have returned 195%, growing from $5,600 to $16,521, while Cardano would have plummeted 53.3% to just $2,616. Ethereum would have also lost 12.5% despite the dollar-cost averaging strategy, whereas Solana, Bitcoin and XRP would have posted gains of 43.3%, 54.6% and 51.2% respectively. The main gains were generated during the 2024 rally, fueled by the SEC’s approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January and spot Ethereum products in May, as well as Donald Trump’s election. The subsequent market reversal erased much of these gains, with Solana’s portfolio falling from $17,728 at the end of 2024 to $8,025 by August 2026. The total crypto market capitalization currently stands at $2.22 trillion, with Bitcoin dominance at 58.88%.
