BakerySwap, Syscoin and Utrust rally as altcoin season kicks into high gear

Bitcoin’s (BTC) institutional adoption shows no signs of slowing down. This week Latin America’s largest e-commerce company, Mercado Libre, disclosed that it had purchased $7.8 million worth of Bitcoin as part of its treasury strategy. 

Mercado Libre was not only in this decision, as Metromile Inc., a Nasdaq-listed digital insurer also said it plans to buy $10 million worth of Bitcoin in the second quarter of this year. Additionally, Metromile will soon start accepting premiums and paying out insurance claims in Bitcoin.

As Bitcoin attempts to stage a strong comeback, several altcoins continue to rally. Let’s focus on three such tokens that have been short-term outperformers.
