As we heard LUNA has an advantage over other leading cryptocurrencies in that it has greater resilience to market downturns than other cryptocurrencies. Here in this post we are comparing the days of LUNA performed better than other Cryptocurrencies (ETH, BTC, and SOL) and use data from that time period to evaluate this claim.
In this context, let’s consider ETH, BTC, and SOL as other cryptocurrencies, and we’ll compare them individually with LUNA over a specific time period.

The graph below shows us the days on which LUNA performed better than other cryptocurrencies, such as BTC, ETH, and SOL. In this example, On December 4,2021 the BTC percentage fall is -13.5% and the LUNA percentage change is -9.9%. Similarly, on February 24,2022 the BTC percentage fall is -5.9% and the LUNA percentage change is -1.8%.
For example, On December 4,2021 the ETH percentage fall is -11.1% and the LUNA percentage change is -9.9%. And on Jan 6,2022 , the ETH percentage fall is -9.6% and the LUNA percentage change is -8.5%. Similarly, on February 24,2022 the ETH percentage fall is -8.3% and the LUNA percentage change is -1.8%. As we are looking at only a few spikes and comparing them, we can see that Ethereum percentage change was greater than LUNA’s. Thus, we can agree that LUNA has better resistance to broader market downturns than other popular cryptocurrencies.
We can count the days on which LUNA performed better than SOL based on the following numbers: On Jan 24, 2022, the SOL percentage change was -11.0% and on the same day, the LUNA percentage change was -3.5%. On Feb 12, 22,24, and 25, the SOL percentage change was greater than the percentage change of LUNA. As a result, we can agree that LUNA is better able to withstand market downturns than SOLANA.
