Altcoin Catch-up: Monero, Ondo Finance, and Kaspa Poised for Upside

Three crypto assets, Monero (XMR), Ondo Finance (ONDO), and Kaspa (KAS), are showing significant upside potential. Their recent price action suggests they have strong fundamentals, but their tokens have lagged behind other opportunities in the market.

Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency, has gained only 3.7% over the past week, while Zcash surged more than 75%. XMR now trades at around $422 with a market capitalization of approximately $7.9 billion, ranking 18th among cryptocurrencies by market value.

Ondo Finance presents a different kind of catch-up opportunity. The business has expanded rapidly, but the ONDO token has barely moved, gaining only 2.5% over the past month. With a market capitalization around $1.85 billion and total value locked at over $4 billion, Ondo's growth gives it a strong fundamental story.

Kaspa could benefit from sharply lower future emissions, with around 95% of KAS supply already mined. Emissions may approach zero by the end of 2026, reducing selling pressure from miners. The token trades at approximately $0.029 with a market capitalization of around $807 million.
