Commissioned byInput Output Group

L1 tokens broadly underperformed in 2025 despite a backdrop of regulatory and institutional wins. Explore the key trends defining ten major blockchains below.

What to know:

2025 was defined by a stark divergence: structural progress collided with stagnant price action. Institutional milestones were reached and TVL increased across most major ecosystems, yet the majority of large-cap Layer-1 tokens finished the year with negative or flat returns.

This report analyzes the structural decoupling between network usage and token performance. We examine 10 major blockchain ecosystems, exploring protocol versus application revenues, key ecosystem narratives, mechanics driving institutional adoption, and the trends to watch as we head into 2026.

AVAX token reclaims top 20 spot after USDC supply expansion

AVAX token reclaims top 20 spot after USDC supply expansion

The post AVAX token reclaims top 20 spot after USDC supply expansion appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Avalanche’s native token AVAX responded to the latest news of the network’s growth, rallying to a three-month peak above $35 as it repositioned itself for DeFi.  Trading volumes also rose to the highest level in three months, at $2.12B.

Additionally, the chain saw increased activity, with over 78K daily active addresses. AVAX rallies on rapid USDC inflows USDC on AVAX is the most rapidly expanding stablecoin version, based on Token Terminal data.
