Top 3 Altcoins below $3 set to skyrocket by 2027

Several familiar names under $3 still hold community interest, yet their structural limitations are becoming more visible. A new crypto, Mutuum Finance (MUTM), is emerging with stronger growth signals due to utility-linked valuation. This sets up a problem and solution contrast between the older narrative coins and the new utility-based model.
