          In today’s review, our Coinmooner team decided to tell you about three of the most discussed and in-demand cryptocurrencies. This list is based on user activity and interest over the past 24 hours, and includes both popular coins and promising tokens that have received the most attention on the site in the last day. Millions of traders, investors, and just cryptocurrency enthusiasts visit daily to check their positions, and it is their searches, views, and discussions that shape this ranking. That is why this list can be considered a kind of “barometer” of market sentiment.

At the moment, we are seeing an interesting picture: some of these digital assets for one reason or another are rapidly approaching their all-time highs, while others are already confidently setting new records. Their movement is influenced by many factors, from fresh news and technological updates to global trends in the crypto industry and the moods of large investors. All this creates a unique market situation where the top spots are not just taken by random coins, but by real leaders of attention and growth. Let’s take a look together at our top three and figure out what exactly made them attract so much interest and what prospects they might have in the near future

.         The first token our Coinmooner team wants to talk about is the one taking third place in today’s ranking - Heima (HEI). At the time of publication, its price is $0.5950, reflecting an impressive growth over the past day of +45.62%. The project’s market capitalization is estimated at $45.53 million, and its 24-hour trading volume reached an impressive $137.16 million, which is 593.46% higher compared to the previous day. Such a sharp surge in interest shows that HEI has found itself in the spotlight for traders and investors, and the Vol/Mkt Cap ratio of 301.48% only confirms high market activity.

The token’s price history is also worth noting. Its all-time high was recorded on February 13, 2025, at $1.36, but since then the price has fallen by more than 56%. At the same time, the current growth is especially impressive given that only four months ago, on April 7, 2025, HEI reached its all-time low of $0.233 - meaning that since then, it has risen by 154.37%. The maximum supply of tokens is 100 million HEI, with 76.52 million currently in circulation. This limited supply, combined with the current hype, could support further price growth if market interest remains strong.

The Heima project is associated with major tags in the crypto industry such as Binance Launchpool, DeFi, and the DWF Labs portfolio, which gives it additional reputational support. In addition, it was recently announced that the Litentry (LIT) token will migrate to Heima (HEI), which likely became one of the drivers of the price surge. This news may have attracted not only existing LIT holders but also new investors expecting the ecosystem to expand. If the current pace continues, HEI has every chance to secure its place among the top trending cryptocurrencies on CoinMarketCap.

        The next token is Pi (PI), which holds second place in our list today. At the time of writing, its price is $0.4280, showing a 15.2% increase over the past day. Pi’s market capitalization is impressive at $3.34 billion, while daily trading volume reached $192.71 million, which is 170.75% higher than the previous day. Although the Vol/Mkt Cap ratio of 5.75% looks more moderate compared to other trending assets, such figures for a large token ranked 36th in the world still indicate a noticeable revival of investor interest.

The price history of PI this year has been quite contrasting. Its all-time high was recorded on February 26, 2025, at $2.98 - nearly seven times higher than the current price. Since then, the token has lost more than 85% of its value. However, the current growth is particularly notable given that just four days ago, on August 6, 2025, Pi reached its all-time low of $0.335. Since then, it has already risen by 27.6%, which suggests a possible short-term trend reversal. The maximum supply is 100 billion PI, with 7.81 billion currently in circulation, leaving significant room for future issuance or potential strategic token burns.

The Pi project is known for its concept of mobile mining, which sets it apart from many other cryptocurrencies. It is positioned as a Layer 1 blockchain, meaning it has its own network and technological base for creating decentralized applications. This approach has already attracted a large community - more than 261 thousand followers on CoinMarketCap, not counting the millions of project supporters worldwide. If the current interest remains, Pi may not only strengthen its place at the top but also return to higher price levels, especially in the case of major announcements or technological updates.

         And topping the list of these tokens at the moment is the legendary Ethereum (ETH) - the unchanging leader among altcoins and the second largest cryptocurrency in the world by market capitalization. Its current price is $4,237.33, showing a 4.5% increase over the past day. ETH’s market capitalization exceeds a colossal $511.48 billion, while its daily trading volume has reached $41.74 billion, which is 8.75% higher than the previous day. The Vol/Mkt Cap ratio of 8.29% for such a large asset indicates strong market activity, and the #2 position in the overall CoinMarketCap ranking only confirms Ethereum’s stable standing in the crypto industry.

The price history of Ethereum is one of the brightest examples of success in the world of digital assets. Its all-time high was recorded on November 16, 2021, at $4,891.70, and the current price is only 13.43% below that record. Looking further back, the lowest price for ETH was on October 22, 2015 — just $0.4209 — meaning a phenomenal growth of over 1,006,000% in 10 years. There are 120.7 million ETH in circulation, with no cap on total supply, which makes the price dynamics especially sensitive to network activity, gas demand, and the scale of smart contract usage.

Ethereum is not just a cryptocurrency, but an entire ecosystem on which decentralized applications (dApps), DeFi platforms, NFT marketplaces, and asset tokenization projects are built. It is often called the “Swiss army knife of blockchain” for the versatility and flexibility of its smart contracts. Right now, Ethereum is in the spotlight thanks to the development of Layer 2 solutions, network upgrades, and increasing adoption in corporate and government blockchain projects. This fundamental demand and technological leadership allow ETH to remain the flagship of the crypto market and set the direction for the entire industry.

        As we can see, after the rapid and in many ways historic growth of Bitcoin in 2025, the altcoin market temporarily entered a period of relative stagnation. Many projects showed no significant movement, and investors preferred to wait and watch the fluctuations of the leading cryptocurrency. However, the situation is now beginning to change: more and more altcoins are showing steady growth, creating the conditions for a new wave of the bull market. Our Coinmooner team is closely monitoring these changes and will regularly share fresh analytical materials with our readers, so you will always be aware of the most promising moves in the digital asset market.

At the same time, we want to remind you that in the rapidly developing Web3 industry, security remains a top priority. Whether you are an experienced investor or just taking your first steps in the blockchain world, it is crucial to use advanced protection methods - from hardware wallets and two-factor authentication to checking smart contracts before interacting with them. Attention, caution, and knowledge of modern cybersecurity tools will help you protect not only your digital assets but also your peace of mind, knowing that your investments are under reliable protection.
