Which altcoins could benefit from the halving? A closer look.
After every Bitcoin halving, liquidity often starts rotating into altcoins — especially those tied to infrastructure, scalability, or layer-1 ecosystems.
Here are three I’m currently watching:
1. Litecoin (LTC):
Often moves in tandem with BTC due to its similar halving mechanics and strong historical correlation. Price action tends to lag slightly behind Bitcoin’s, making it a popular pick post-halving.
2. Kaspa (KAS):
A fast PoW chain gaining traction among miners, especially as BTC rewards decline. It’s been riding a strong narrative around “the next-gen PoW” — and liquidity could spill over here as mining interest diversifies.
3. Stacks (STX):
A Bitcoin layer for smart contracts. As interest in Bitcoin-native applications grows, STX could benefit as a gateway for DeFi/NFTs secured by BTC.
Of course, altcoin season doesn’t start overnight — but watching volume surges and BTC dominance levels can help spot rotation early.
In my next post, I’ll explore why futures trading can become a trap right after the halving — and what signals I use to avoid it.
