Let's take a look at the list of cryptocurrencies that have shown significant price recovery from last week's lows and the reasons for their growth

From last week's price lows, which ended on February 8, the rates of many cryptocurrencies rose by tens of percent by February 9. During the same period, Bitcoin and Ethereum quotes rose by approximately 17%, to $70,000 and $2,050, respectively.

The growth of cryptocurrencies occurred almost immediately after the collapse of quotes on February 6. At that moment, the total capitalization of the crypto market reached its lowest level since the end of 2024, below $2.2 trillion. The price of Bitcoin fell to $60,000, and Ethereum fell below $1,750.

At the time of the decline, many major crypto assets updated their multi-month or multi-year lows. Below are the cryptocurrencies from the list of the 100 largest by capitalization, according to Coinmarketcap, which showed the highest percentage growth from last week's lows.

Aster DEX ($ASTER )

Growth from last week's low: 45%

ASTER is the native token of the Aster platform from the Perp DEX (perpetual futures or perps) category of the crypto market. The platform is supported and promoted by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, investment company YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), and the leading DEX platform on the BNB Chain blockchain — PancakeSwap.

The minimum price of ASTER last week was $0.415, a level previously seen only in September 2025, when the token first began trading. In the same month, a record high price of $2.42 was reached, indicating a drop of about 75% from the peak to the current value of about $0.605.

Zcash ($ZEC)

Growth from last week's low: 23%

Zcash (ZEC) is one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization ($3.8 billion) developed for anonymous transactions. Coins in this category allow transactions to be conducted confidentially and anonymously. It is also one of the few coins that works through mining, like Bitcoin.

The ZEC cryptocurrency took the lead in growth last year, but since the beginning of 2026, the coin has shown the worst price dynamics among the 100 largest crypto assets — the price of ZEC has fallen by more than 50% since the beginning of January.

Last week, ZEC hit a low of $188, its lowest level since October, when ZEC was showing significant growth. In November last year, it reached a local high of over $735, but since then, the price has fallen by almost 70% to its current level of $230.

Solana ($SOL)

Growth from last week's low: 23%

Solana is a first-tier blockchain that gained prominence during the 2021 crypto market boom as a competitor to Ethereum. By the end of 2022, the price of SOL had fallen more than 95% from its 2021 peak to around $8. Solana's rapid decline coincided with the collapse of the FTX exchange and Alameda Research, an investment company that actively promoted the project's ecosystem.

In recent years, Solana has been one of the fastest-growing assets in the crypto market, reaching a record high of $294 in early 2025. On February 6, the price of SOL hit a multi-year low below $69, a level last seen at the end of 2023. At the current price above $84, SOL has lost more than 70% of its record value. Since September 2025, when the price of SOL was above $250, quotes have been falling with virtually no corrections.

Worldcoin ($WLD )

Growth from last week's low: 21%

A crypto project in the digital identity sector. Its distinctive feature is that Worldcoin operators in different countries scan people's eyeballs using the Orb device — a reflective metal ball that records information about the iris of a person's eye in the form of a code. Everyone who has been scanned receives a small amount of WLD tokens for doing so.

The World project has received mixed reactions — when it launched in 2023, people lined up to be scanned, and the WLD token was immediately added by the largest crypto exchanges. But skeptics warn of high risks — the iris is unique, and the use of such information by third parties can cause serious problems. For security reasons, the project's activities are prohibited in India, Brazil, France, Germany, South Korea, and several other countries. In Kenya and Hong Kong, World operators' offices were raided and shut down.

The historical peak price of WLD was reached in March 2024 at $11.8 per token. Since then, the price has been on a downward trend, with local growth at the end of 2024 and 2025. On February 6, WLD updated its historical low at $0.314. At the current price of around $0.381, the drop from the record high exceeds 96%.

Pump.fun ($PUMP )

Growth from last week's low: 20%

Pump.fun is the largest platform for creating memecoins based on the Solana blockchain. The project offers a simple, fast, and inexpensive way to create tokens for any market participant for a small fee. Since its launch in early 2024, the project has earned more than $975 million, according to Dune. The platform is one of the most profitable in cryptocurrencies, with revenues of about $1 million per day.

The platform is also distinguished by the fact that virtually all daily revenues are directed to a buyback program for its own PUMP token. Since the program began, the project has repurchased tokens worth more than $280 million.

The historical peak price of PUMP was recorded at the time of the token's launch and the start of trading in July 2025 at $0.012. After that, in September 2025, the price temporarily rose above $0.0087 — since then, with small periods of growth, the PUMP rate has been falling. The current indicator of about $0.002 per token has been maintained since the end of last year, and the minimum price was recorded in October 2025 at about $0.0011.
