Monday started with blood on the cryptocurrency market. According to data from<a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinGlass</a>, more than $500 million in long and short positions in crypto asset futures were liquidated over the past 24 hours. Interestingly, however, even in this tsunami of liquidations, there were some cryptocurrencies that showed not only stable but even discouraging price behavior. Over the past 24 hours, there were three such crypto assets -<a href="https://u.today/peter-brandts-new-xrp-price-prediction-suggests-unbelievable-all-time-high" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a>, HBAR and IOTA.
According to Dropstab's table of top performers, these cryptocurrencies increased their price by an average of 22% during this period. Interestingly, all of these digital currencies belong to projects that are more focused on working with businesses and crypto solutions for institutional investors.
It is likely that the revaluation of such assets was primarily set by XRP, which has seen a staggering growth of hundreds of percent over the past month, adding over $100 billion in capitalization and eventually becoming the third largest cryptocurrency right now. <img src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/dropstab.png" data-entity-uuid="aaddcae7-311c-4b0b-96f5-b1dd148acd5b" data-entity-type="file" alt="&quot;&quot;" data-caption="Source: <a href=&quot;https://dropstab.com/insights/top-performance&quot;>Dropstab</a>">
Now, XRP can be called the headliner of this sector of enterprise-oriented cryptocurrencies, and all such assets are in a trend that positively affects their prices, even in times of increased market turbulence.

As for liquidations, judging by the CoinGlass heat map, we can see that investors and traders in meme cryptocurrencies are the most affected. This also confirms that "serious" projects like Hedera and XRP are now in the trend. <img src="https://u.today/sites/default/files/inline-images/coinglass_2.png" data-entity-uuid="37afd452-baf3-4a8a-9e0b-42c74c6cb511" data-entity-type="file" alt="&quot;&quot;" data-caption="Source: <a href=&quot;https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData&quot;>CoinGlass</a>">
In addition,<a href="https://u.today/microstrategys-saylor-pitches-bitcoin-to-microsoft-board" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> and<a href="https://u.today/ethereum-eth-price-prediction-for-november-30" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum (ETH)</a> are at the top, which is not surprising given the phenomenon of these two major cryptocurrencies as market markers or indices.
Overall, however, bullish traders are most affected by this half-billion dollar wave of liquidation, with 63.3% of forced positions being long. <a href="https://u.today/500-million-liquidation-chaos-crowns-xrp-hbar-and-iota-as-top-winners" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Read original article on U.Today</a>
