NEAR, ALGO and CVP notched gains in excess of 37% while the wider market attempts to recover from Tuesday’s sharp correction.
The wider cryptocurrency market appears to be in the early stages of a recovery with many altcoins regaining their footing after correcting by 20% to 30% on Sept. 7 when Bitcoin (BTC) fell below $43,000.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the biggest gainers over the past 24 hours were NEAR Protocol (NEAR), Algorand (ALGO) and PowerPool (CVP).
NEAR Protocol gains 64%
The top gainer NEAR Protocol is a decentralized proof-of-stake protocol focused on offering faster transaction speeds at a lower cost to help facilitate the adoption of blockchain technology.

The spike in momentum for the project comes as it launches its METABuild hackathon event, which is offering more than $1 million in prizes to participants.

Algorand is a permissionless pure proof-of-stake blockchain protocol focused on transaction speed, efficiency and the goal of becoming the base layer for the financial industry.
