Fractions of a penny to the top of the table

On January 1, 2026, one Akedo cost $0.00043979 — less than a twentieth of a cent. Today it trades at $0.06414. That move — 14,484.46% — makes Akedo the runaway #1 of every cryptocurrency tracked in 2026, ahead of Bedrock (+1,740%) by an almost comical margin.

The numbers

A $1,000 bet on Akedo on New Year’s Day would be worth $1,458,446 today. The #2 coin would have turned the same $1,000 into roughly $18,400. This is the largest YTD gain in the tracked universe by an order of magnitude.

A word on volatility

Gains like this cut both ways. Micro-cap tokens that rise 14,000% can fall 90% in weeks on thin liquidity — the same mechanics that created the run work in reverse. Anyone looking at the chart should understand: this is the extreme tail of risk, not a normal investment outcome.
