Gemini has published a ranking of ten major crypto assets that have posted some of the steepest losses in 2026, and the list makes for a rough read for several well-known altcoins. Bitcoin Cash sits at the bottom of the group with a 61.76% year-to-date decline. Polkadot follows at 53.03%, while Cardano is third at 48.04%. XRP comes next with a 43.43% drop, just ahead of Dogecoin at 42.38%. Based on those figures, the average decline across the ten assets is about 42.7%.
Cardano and XRP Under Pressure
Cardano’s 48.04% slide leaves ADA trading near $0.175, according to CoinMarketCap. The weakness has shown up in derivatives too. A recent report noted that Cardano funding turned negative even as most Binance ADA accounts stayed long, while open interest shrank and long liquidations added to the selloff. ADA has also underperformed XRP by 4.61 percentage points in Gemini’s 2026 comparison.
XRP’s 43.43% decline puts it fourth on the list. CoinMarketCap places XRP around $1.05, down roughly 25% over the past 30 days and trading between $1.04 and $1.10 in the latest 24 hours. The drop pushed XRP into oversold territory. The Crypto Basic’s Nov. 10 Price Desk recorded a daily RSI of 26.69 as XRP hit a fresh 60-session low. That happened despite continued developments across Ripple and the XRP Ledger, which again shows the gap between project activity and short-term token prices.
Bitcoin Cash and Polkadot Lead Declines
Bitcoin Cash’s 61.76% fall is the worst in Gemini’s selection. It is roughly 8.7 percentage points worse than Polkadot in second place. BCH trades near $230, more than 94% below its historical peak. Polkadot, meanwhile, trades around $0.84 after its 53.03% year-to-date decline. CoinMarketCap data puts DOT roughly 98% below its 2021 all-time high.
Even Kaspa, the least-negative asset on Gemini’s list, has fallen more than 30% in 2026. That detail helps frame how broad the damage has been for established altcoins this year.
Snapshots Can Change
It is worth keeping in mind that these percentages are year-to-date snapshots. They will keep moving with prices through the rest of 2026, perhaps sharply. For now, though, Gemini’s ranking shows that several large-cap tokens have struggled to recover, and the market has not rewarded news from their supporting networks in any lasting way.
