<p>The global cryptocurrency market is down 5% for the three days of October thus far, with Bitcoin and Ethereum both falling from their holding patterns at $6,600 and $230 respectively. As of Wednesday, October 3rd, only the ever-fluctuating stablecoins and a handful of alts have recorded gains for the day – among them two tokens with names that coincidentally harken back to two of the world’s oldest literary texts.</p>
<h2><b>Noah’s Odyssey</b></h2>
<p>Noah Coin (NOAH) and Odyssey (OCN) hit 44% and 33% growth respectively over the course of the day, sending both tokens into the market cap top-one hundred. Noah Coin, covered here just over a month ago when it struck <a href="https://hacked.com/noahs-ark-floats-into-top-100-on-97-daily-growth-crypto-city-ahead/">97% gains over twenty-four hours</a>, is a token tied to a planned crypto city and beach resort.</p>
<p>According to the project website, Noah Coin can be used to pay for access to a beach resort in the Philippines, while plans are apparently afoot to build an entire city which runs on cryptocurrency. Ambitious plans, but not enough to halt Noah Coin’s 97% decline since launch in March of 2018.</p>
<p>Today NOAH tokens climbed from a price of $0.001398 up to the daily peak of $0.002018 – a 44% increase over twenty-four hours.</p>

<p>Over 74% of trades have come against BTC – making up around $1.8 million of the $2.4 million daily total. HitBTC and YoBit cater for the majority of the action, with over 94% of trades coming from those two exchanges.</p>
<h2><b>Odyssey Price</b></h2>
<p>Odyssey (OCN) is a multi-faceted blockchain project which includes an up and running cryptocurrency asset marketplace, planned smart contract integration, and its own dedicated wallets for iOs and Android.</p>
<p>The token launched in January of 2018 just in time to feel the altcoin pump for that month, but since faded from prominence. Today’s entry into the top one-hundred comes off the back of 33% daily growth, carrying OCN from a value of $0.009057 up to today’s high of $0.012126.</p>
<p><a href="https://hacked.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/odyssey.png" class="hckd-pop" title="Noah Coin and Odyssey; Little Known Altcoins Defy Market Amid Downturn"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-69360" data-size="1517x757" src="https://hacked.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/odyssey-1024x511.png" alt="" width="740" height="369" /><br/></a></p>
<p>In a fairly unusual sight for a little known altcoin, most of OCN’s trades came against Tether (USDT). Over 56% of trades come from the OCN/USDT pair, and may be a sign that traders are keeping the token on a short leash following its <a href="https://hacked.com/odyssey-maintains-double-digit-gains-as-broader-market-declines/">unexpected, and brief, burst </a>onto CoinMarketCap’s front page a few days ago.</p>
<p>Odyssey is in the process of airdropping 200 million OCP coins to its community of OCN holders – the first batch of which were released earlier this week. With the sign-up process still open, a recent flurry of buys may have been enough to kickstart the recent trading boost. OCN has relatively good exposure, being available on Gate.io, Upbit, Huobi, Kucoin and Bittrex, among others.</p>
