Major U.S. Exchange Names ADA and XRP Among 2026’s Biggest Losers

By NBTC2 min read

Gemini, top U.S. crypto exchange has highlighted ten major crypto assets suffering some of the steepest losses of 2026, with Bitcoin Cash leading the exchange’s list after falling 61.76% year-to-date.

Polkadot is next, down 53.03%, while Cardano ranks third with a 48.04% loss. $XRP follows at -43.43%, just ahead of Dogecoin, which is down 42.38%.

The full ranking shared by Gemini is:

  • Bitcoin Cash ($BCH): -61.76%
  • Polkadot ($DOT): -53.03%
  • Cardano ($ADA): -48.04%
  • $XRP: -43.43%
  • Dogecoin (DOGE): -42.38%
  • Sui (SUI): -42.08%
  • Hedera (HBAR): -38.13%
  • Solana (SOL): -34.02%
  • Avalanche (AVAX): -33.40%
  • Kaspa (KAS): -30.75%

Our calculation puts the average decline across the ten assets at approximately 42.7%.

Cardano Has Lost Nearly Half Its Value in 2026

With a 48.04% year-to-date decline, Cardano is the third-worst performer in Gemini’s selection.

CoinMarketCap data shows $ADA trading near $0.175 after continued weakness in October and November.

The selloff is also evident in derivatives markets. The Crypto Basic recently reported that Cardano funding turned negative even as most Binance $ADA accounts remained long. Shrinking open interest and long liquidations have also accompanied the broader decline.

So far in Gemini’s 2026 comparison, $ADA has underperformed $XRP by 4.61 percentage points.

$XRP Falls 43.43% as Price Trades Near $1.05

A 43.43% decline puts $XRP fourth on Gemini’s list.

CoinMarketCap puts $XRP at around $1.05. The asset is down roughly 25% over the past 30 days and has traded between $1.04 and $1.10 in the latest 24 hours.

Recent losses have pushed $XRP into oversold territory. In The Crypto Basic’s Nov. 10 Price Desk, daily RSI was recorded at 26.69 as $XRP set a new 60-session low.

The decline has come despite ongoing developments across Ripple and the $XRP Ledger, highlighting the disconnect between ecosystem activity and short-term token performance.

$BCH and $DOT Record the Deepest Losses

Bitcoin Cash has the steepest decline, at 61.76%—roughly 8.7 percentage points worse than second-place Polkadot.

$BCH is currently trading near $230, more than 94% below its historical peak.

Polkadot, meanwhile, trades around $0.84 after falling 53.03% year to date. CoinMarketCap data puts $DOT roughly 98% below its 2021 all-time high.

Kaspa, the least-negative asset on Gemini’s list, is still down more than 30% in 2026.

The ranking illustrates how difficult the year has been for several established altcoins. These percentages are year-to-date snapshots, however, and will continue to change with prices through the rest of 2026.
