Cardano was launched in 2017 and is considered as a third-generation (following Bitcoin and Ethereum as the first and second generations, respectively) decentralized proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain platform designed to be less energy intensive and more efficient alternative to proof-of-work (PoW) networks.  Cardano is currently the third largest cryptocurrency and many analysts believe that it has the potential to overtake Ethereum.

Polkadot (DOT CFD) - Capitalization $31.68 billion; YTD return: +273%

Polkadot  - the project was initiated by former directors associated with the Ethereum project. The innovation of this cryptocurrency is the ability to support multiple blockchains.

Dogecoin (DOGE CFD) - Capitalization $28.19 billion; YTD return: +2113%

Dogecoin was created as a joke in opposition to Bitcoin, which was just beginning to gain popularity a few years ago. For many years, the volatility and value of this cryptocurrency has been very low. Everything changed along with the interest on the part of Elon Musk, who not only invested his funds in this cryptocurrency, but also announced the possibility of developing the project. Dogecoin is currently the 10th cryptocurrency in terms of capitalization.

Uniswap (UNI CFD) - Capitalization $13.19 billion; YTD return: +437%

Uniswap is a decentralized finance protocol that is used to exchange cryptocurrencies. Uniswap aims to keep token trading automated and completely open to anyone who holds tokens, while improving the efficiency of trading versus that on traditional exchanges.

Stellar (XLM CFD)  - Capitalization $6.95 billion; YTD return: +121% 

Stellar is a large financial network that is designed to enable fast cross-border payments in large amounts of currencies. In order to become independent from a specific currency or cryptocurrency in the network, the XLM currency, i.e. Lumen was created, which is used to cover transaction costs. 

Tezos (XTZ CFD) - Capitalization $5.79 billion; YTD return: +233%

Tezos was one of the first to use a “proof of stake” consensus mechanism, a system that’s becoming increasingly popular compared with the “proof of work” mechanism.

This is something that has influenced both Bitcoin and Ethereum networks several times. 

EOS (EOS CFD) - Capitalization $4.07 billion; YTD return: +59%

EOS is a blockchain-based, decentralized platform used to develop, host, and run business applications or dApps similar to Ethereum with the notable distinction that transaction confirmations are done through a different type of consensus system.
