NIGHT Exits Top 100 as ZEC Edges DOGE Out

As of 15:00 UTC on 24 Aug 2026, NIGHT exited CoinMarketCap's top 100 despite a 2.7% 24h gain. That rank-price mismatch sits alongside ZEC's quiet top-10 entry and sharper gains from AERO and INJ below the boundary.

The contrarian split

ZEC climbed from rank 11 to 10 at a $14.49B market cap, while DOGE slipped from 10 to 11 at $14.29B. The top-10 exchange was only one place: ZEC gained 0.7% over 24 hours and DOGE lost 1.0%.

Token	Rank move	24h
ZEC Zcash	11 -> 10	▲ 0.7%
DOGE Dogecoin	10 -> 11	▼ 1.0%
AERO Aerodrome Finance	87 -> 82	▲ 12.8%
INJ Injective	81 -> 77	▲ 11.1%

At the outer edge, GNO entered at #100 and NIGHT left from #98, even with NIGHT's positive price change. Among the selected in-list moves, AERO rose five ranks to #82 and INJ four to #77. STABLE fell four to #68 on -8.2%, while TRUMP also fell four to #74 on -8.7%.

The selected sector split places DeFi and infrastructure strength (AERO, INJ) against weakness in STABLE and TRUMP; the top-10 boundary itself barely moved.
