CoinMarketCap's top 10 held steady as of 15:00 UTC on 12 Sep, but the mid-cap band rotated cleanly: yield-bearing and stablecoin tokens climbed while L1 and AI names gave back ranks over 24 hours.
The climbers cluster
ether.fi (ETHFI) led the day, gaining five ranks to #69 on a 13.0% price move — the strongest performer in the snapshot. Sky (SKY) and JUST (JST) each added three ranks on 7.0% gains. Stablecoins quietly crept upward too: USDG rose to #25 and USDD to #46 on peg-flat prices, gaining rank as the mcap around them shrank.
| Token | Rank | Delta | 24h |
|---|---|---|---|
ETHFI Ether.fi |
#69 | ▲ 5 | ▲ 13.0% |
SKY Sky |
#48 | ▲ 3 | ▲ 7.0% |
JST JUST |
#64 | ▲ 3 | ▲ 7.0% |
USDG Global Dollar |
#25 | ▲ 3 | ▲ 0.1% |
The fallers and the boundary swap
NEAR dropped four ranks to #29 on a 10.5% decline — the day's steepest rank fall. ENA slipped to #50 (-6.7%), with Venice (VVV) down 11.3% to #56. At the bottom edge, SEI re-entered at #100 while Celestia (TIA) dropped out after slipping to a 0.35 billion dollar market cap.
The pattern reads as rotation into restaking and DeFi yield exposure, with L1 infrastructure and AI tokens cooling off.
