<p class="is-style-lead">According to CoinGecko’s top gainer report for Jan. 19, UMA holds the top spot with a 134% price surge in the last 24 hours.</p> 
<p>The triple-digit gains come in light of the Universal Market Access (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/uma/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UMA</a>) protocol’s Oval launch, which is expected the week of Jan. 22. Although minimal information has been released, UMA has stated that the product will focus on protecting lending protocols.</p>

<p>Earlier in the week on Jan. 16, the project also garnered excitement on X with&nbsp;<a href="https://twitter.com/againes_/status/1747648781439414300" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Index Coop&nbsp;</a>integrating the Optimistic Oracle to secure index rebalancing.
