Livepeer is among the few altcoins to rip on Friday as the market witnessed another bout of sell-off trades that pushed Bitcoin to $105k.

The LPT token, native to the decentralized AI protocol Livepeer, spiked an impressive 150% to rank alongside the likes of Pocket Network, White Rock, and Numeraire as leading performers in the past 24 hours.

Why did Livepeer’s price skyrocket today?

Livepeer’s token had not crossed above $10 since dipping from above $15 in mid-May.

However, buoyed by a series of positive news, including the surge in Nvidia stock after positive earnings reports, it surged more than 150% to hit $14.15.

The level marked Livepeer’s highest price since January.

Part of the rally ensued and gathered pace as the LPT community exploded in optimism on an announcement from Upbit, South Korea’s largest crypto exchange.

Listings on the Upbit exchange often catapult trading volumes upon listing of trading pairs. Livepeer experienced just that.

Upbit added KRW and USDT pairs.
