DailyCoin reports that Hedera and Algorand are posting double-digit weekly gains as capital rotates into established Layer 1 names. Hedera’s HBAR token is trading around $0.0949, up 20.9% over the past seven days, while Algorand’s ALGO has risen 19.7% in the same period. Both networks remain significantly below their all-time highs, with HBAR roughly 83.4% lower and ALGO 96.8% lower than their peaks.
Meanwhile, BlockDAG activated Buyback MAXX Mode, a 72-hour event that lowers the direct entry price to $0.000000005. This entry rate offers buyers 34 times the coins for the same spend compared to the standing price. Simultaneously, the USDT Buyback Price was raised to $0.05, a 67% upgrade from its prior rate.
The project highlights that its blockchain is live, mining hardware is shipping, and cashouts are scheduled to begin in November. This combination of established network rallies and a short-lived buyback upgrade creates a specific market setup for the week.

The 24-hour volume delta stands at +$433,262, and cumulative volume delta closed at +$949,357. This flow indicates that buyers are currently outpacing sellers in the short term, though the broader 24-hour trend remains more balanced. The spot volume for the period reached $14,905,687 across 164,070 trades.

Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for HBAR, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, HBAR saw a 24.8% price increase with a total volume delta of +$2,613,235. The 24-hour buy ratio of 51.5% is slightly above the 7-day average of 51.3%, showing a marginal increase in buying sentiment. However, the 24-hour spot volume of $14,905,687 is only 0.69 times the weekly average, indicating lower-than-usual trading activity. Net buying occurred on 5 of the 7 days in the prior week, suggesting intermittent rather than consistent accumulation. This current day represents a spike in buying intensity relative to the recent average, despite lower overall volume.
