After a bad first quarter this year, April was without a doubt a great month for the cryptocurrency market. Excluding the stable coin Tether (USDT), each coin or token in the top 50 was priced in green last month.
- EOS entered the Top 5 by climbing a whopping 187%.
- STEEM rose from rank 32 to place 29 thanks to an increase of 156%.
- The total crypto market cap rose from 264 billion to 414 billion.
- Even though Bitcoin surged 33%, Bitcoin's dominance dropped from 45.5% at the beginning of April to 37% at the end of the month.

They all did well and EOS did even better cos no one expected the sudden rise in value.
After Huobi listing, Steem went up the margin. Despite the correction of BTC, steem was still moving.
