Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and other alternatives experienced a drop on Thursday and persisted into Friday, following a pattern that has been developing for several days now.
Almost all alternative digital currencies experienced a decline, causing the total market value of cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins to fall to approximately $580 billion – a level not seen since June 5.
The analysis by Nansen indicates that certain astute investors in the cryptocurrency market are taking advantage of the current downturn by purchasing digital assets.
Wise investment strategies are often associated with those who have consistently demonstrated profitability in the cryptocurrency market, typically purchasing tokens when their value drops significantly and selling short when they reach their maximum. Below is a list of popular altcoins that savvy investors are currently investing in.
Aerodrome Finance
On the decentralized exchange platform Base, Aerodrome Finance (AERO) – the largest one in the network – is capturing interest from savvy financial investors. According to Nansen’s report, purchases exceeding sales, or net buys, on DEX networks amounted to approximately $180,000.
One possible explanation for the purchase is that Aerodrome Finance has been steadily increasing its presence in the market on the Base network. In contrast to Uniswap and PancakeSwap, which processed $10.9 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, over the past 30 days on the Base network, Aerodrome Finance recorded a staggering $15.4 billion in DEX volume.
One additional factor is the recent declaration made by Coinbase that they plan to incorporate Decentralized Exchange (DEX) networks within their primary application, potentially granting Aerodrome exposure to a vast number of users.

Freysa AI
It’s worth noting that Freysa AI (FAI) is another popular altcoin that savvy investors are purchasing. According to Nansen’s data, these investors snapped up tokens valued at approximately $232,000 over the past 24 hours, despite a 10% decrease in its price.
Freysa AI operates as a blockchain platform built on Baseblockchain. Their website explains that it serves as an agent managing the Digital Twins network. Digital Twins are depicted as a user’s personal assistant and intellectual extension, symbolizing individuals within a global system. Freysa AI currently boasts a market capitalization of more than $102 million.
AAVE
Investors known for their shrewd financial decisions, monitored by Nansen, are accumulating Aave (AAVE) tokens. This decentralized finance leader currently holds over $27 billion in assets. In the past 24 hours alone, these investors have purchased tokens valued at approximately $118,700.
According to crypto.news, AAVE appears robust both technically and fundamentally. It’s displaying a ‘golden cross’ pattern on its daily chart, which suggests a possible spike towards its peak level from the previous year.
Essentially, AAVE’s influence has expanded in the world of lending and borrowing, reaching unprecedented levels as its Total Value Locked (TVL) hit an all-time peak. Additionally, interest in GHO, its stablecoin, remains strong, with its market capitalization climbing to $218 million.
Virtuals Protocol
In simpler terms, VIRTUAL, a popular alternative cryptocurrency, has been attracting substantial investments from savvy investors recently. Over the past day, there were buy orders totaling $60,000 without any recorded sales.
As a crypto investor, I’m drawn to Virtuals Protocol, a key player in the artificial intelligence industry. It streamlines the process for developers to create AI agents in a matter of minutes. The recent $13 billion investment by Meta Platforms into Scale AI underscores the significant growth potential within this sector, making it an attractive option for savvy investors like myself.
