Humanity Protocol (H) Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) on Optimism Maker (MKR) TrueUSD (TUSD) on Ethereum SPX6900 (SPX) SwissBorg (BORG) Rocket Pool ETH (RETH) Worldcoin (WLD) on Optimism Cronos (CRO) Ethereum Name Service (ENS) According to Santiment, the ranking tracks the percentage increase in transactions exceeding $100,000 over seven days among projects with market capitalizations of at least $100 million.

The token was priced at approximately $0.081839 in Santiment’s dataset, with a market capitalization of about $159.22 million and seven-day trading volume of $4.16 million. Humanity Protocol operates within the blockchain infrastructure and smart-contract segments. Its substantial increase in large transactions makes H the strongest whale-activity riser among the ten projects examined, although higher whale participation does not necessarily indicate sustained buying pressure. Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) on Optimism recorded a 440% increase in whale transactions, placing it second. Santiment’s chart showed WBTC trading around $63,929.59, with the tracked version carrying approximately $7.44 billion in market capitalization and $127.33 million in volume. WBTC provides tokenized exposure to Bitcoin while allowing holders to interact with blockchain applications outside Bitcoin’s native network. Its presence on Optimism can provide access to decentralized finance applications while retaining price exposure to BTC. The sharp increase in $100,000-plus transfers suggests significantly greater large-holder activity during the measured seven-day period. Maker (MKR) Maker (MKR) registered a 400% increase in whale transactions, tying it with TrueUSD for the third-highest percentage rise. MKR was priced around $1,387.77, while Santiment listed its market capitalization at approximately $1.17 billion. Maker is associated with decentralized finance and lending infrastructure, giving MKR a different investment profile from payment-focused or meme-based cryptocurrencies. The increase in large transactions indicates that high-value transfers involving MKR expanded considerably during the week. However, whale transaction growth can reflect accumulation, distribution, transfers between wallets, or other large-scale activity, making broader market conditions important for interpreting the metric. TrueUSD (TUSD) TrueUSD (TUSD) on Ethereum also recorded a 400% increase in transactions valued above $100,000. TUSD traded near $0.99664 in Santiment’s data, with a market capitalization of approximately $492.85 million and volume of $16.92 million. Unlike most cryptocurrencies on the ranking, TUSD is a stablecoin designed to maintain a value close to the U.S. dollar. Consequently, rising whale activity does not carry the same price implications that may apply to non-stablecoin assets.
