# Dash Beat Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana Last Week and Sprang to Take Place in Top 3 Gainers: Here's the Coin on the Top

The cryptocurrency market grew last week, but lesser-known, lower-cap tokens outperformed the blue-chip heavyweights.

## The Table Topper

**Arbitrum** (CRYPTO: ARB), the native token of the **Ethereum** (CRYPTO: ETH) Layer 2 network, topped the charts, surging 108% in a week.

**Robinhood Chain**, built on Arbitrum’s technology, has seen a sudden surge in daily fees, with 10% of the fees flowing back to the Arbitrum ecosystem.

**Robinhood** launched its Layer-2 chain in July around tokenized stocks, but memecoins have become the dominant fee driver. **Pons** (PONS), a memecoin launchpad, has skyrocketed 2200% over the last month.

| **Cryptocurrency**                | **7-Day Gains +/-** | **Price (Recorded at 12:40 a.m. EDT)** |
| --------------------------------- | ------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| **Arbitrum**                      | +108.30%            | $0.1755                                |
| **Dash**                          | +71.10%             | $769.98                                |
| **Ethereum**                      | +3.80%              | $2,494                                 |
| **Solana**                        | +3.50%              | $105.06                                |
| **Bitcoin**                       | +2.80%              | $79,573                                |

## Privacy Coins Back in Demand?

**Dash** (CRYPTO: DASH) bagged the second spot last week with returns of over 70% as cryptocurrency investors rotated into privacy tokens. The coin jumped to $78, its highest level in nearly 8 months. 

Market heavyweights underperformed in comparison, with **Bitcoin** (CRYPTO: BTC), Ethereum and **Solana** (CRYPTO: SOL) gaining 2.80%, 3.80% and 3.50%, respectively.
