Altcoin season remains fragmented, yet trading volumes and selective rallies continue to emerge. Cronos is the clearest example this week, advancing sharply after new corporate and structural developments pushed activity higher.
Altcoin season is not simply defined by broad rallies across all tokens. Instead, capital is shifting toward assets with liquidity, direct trading pairs, and news that changes the perception of use. This selective rotation shows why Cronos can surge on the back of treasury news, while Jito gains from governance alignment, and Hyperliquid benefits from perpetual contract flows.
Cronos (CRO): Surging on Corporate Linkage and On-Chain Growth.
Cronos is trading at $0.248, an increase of more than 20 percent over the past 24 hours. Market capitalization stands at $8.3 billion.
The move came after an announcement that Trump Media and Crypto.com partnered to create a public vehicle with a planned $6.4 billion investment strategy for CRO. Trump Media committed to a $105 million purchase of CRO, and a new listing has been planned on Nasdaq under the ticker MCGA. This step effectively positioned CRO as part of a treasury-backed initiative, extending its reach beyond an exchange token.
On-chain, Cronos also shows rising usage following the July upgrade that integrated the Cosmos SDK and expanded interoperability through IBC. Data providers report a 14% increase in gas usage and a 33% rise in contract deployment since the update. Combined with growing derivatives coverage, including new perpetual contracts, this has created both technical and fundamental support for CRO’s rally.
Jito (JTO): Governance and Staking Utility.
Jito is trading near $1.96, recording daily gains of close to 10% with a market capitalization of about $726 million. The circulating supply is near 370 million tokens, and volume has exceeded $50 million in the past day.

The token underpins liquid staking on Solana and benefits from the clarity that non-custodial staking products can remain outside securities classification. A recent governance decision, JIP 24, transferred all protocol fees to the Jito DAO treasury, strengthening alignment with holders.
These updates provide a base for continued use, though recent volatility tied to exchange margin restrictions has tempered momentum.
Hyperliquid (HYPE): Perpetuals Platform Growth.
Hyperliquid is trading near $49.8, close to its record high earlier this month. Its market capitalization is around $16.5 billion, and its daily turnover exceeds $400 million. Supply in circulation is about 333 million, and its fixed cap is one billion.
The project’s focus on an on-chain order book for perpetual contracts has secured growing user activity. Since July, the repurchase of around twenty-nine million tokens has reduced the liquid supply, supporting price levels.
Combined with increased use of its derivatives venue, this has helped maintain HYPE’s position as one of the stronger assets in current trading.
