Data shows the small cap altcoins have continued to outperform Bitcoin and the rest of the market recently as GRT has managed 117% gains in the past week. Small Cap Altcoins Index Is Sitting At 48% Profits For The Past Month As per the latest weekly report from Arcane Research, while other sections of the market have stagnated, the small caps have still seen an upside recently. The “altcoin indexes” here refer to groups of altcoins divided based on their market caps. There are three main indexes in the market: the “small caps,” the “mid caps,” and the “large caps.” These groups are based on the Bletchley Indexes and together represent the top 70 cryptocurrencies in the market (with the top 10 making the large caps, while the next 20 are the mid caps, and the final 40 are the small caps). The benefit of dividing up the altcoin market like this is that the performance of each of the different-sized segments of the sector can be easily evaluated this way. Now, here is a chart that shows how these indexes have performed against each other, as well as versus Bitcoin, during the past 30 days: Looks like the small caps have been at the top during this period | Source: Arcane Research's Ahead of the Curve - February 7 As you can see in the above graph, Bitcoin and all the altcoin indexes except for the small caps started consolidating around January 22 and have since been stuck in the same sideways movement.

As a result, these altcoins collectively stand 48% in the green for the past month, significantly outperforming the rest of the market.
