The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has broken its downtrend, showing rising buyer interest in the broader altcoin sector. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has registered a bullish crossover, confirming the positive momentum.
Market analysts warn that this trend remains dependent on Bitcoin holding above $104,000 and Ethereum staying above $2,500. If these conditions hold, analysts expect altcoins to extend their gains.
Technical data shows that the total crypto market cap, excluding the top 10 assets, has surged. This suggests increased investor confidence and possibly continues the bullish wave.
Captain Faibik said that Bitcoin has broken out of a falling wedge pattern. This signals the end of a downtrend and the start of a possible rally.
The chart shows that Bitcoin has crossed above the resistance trendline, a move typically seen as a confirmation of bullish sentiment. Price action has followed with strength, reinforcing the validity of the breakout.
Captain Faibik has advised crypto holders to remain patient and continue holding their altcoins. His message urges investors to “HODL your Altcoins tightly,” based on the projected rise in the market.
The sentiment reflects the broader mood among technical analysts who view the breakout as a turning point. CryptoCove, a known data provider, has supported this view, indicating renewed market strength as capitalization improves across altcoins.
Institutional interest in Bitcoin has grown following a bold forecast from Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest. According to Wood, Bitcoin could reach $1.5 million by 2030. Her statement has drawn attention from institutional investors looking to strengthen their crypto portfolios.

In line with her outlook, ARK Invest has recently added $58 million worth of Bitcoin to its holdings via the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF.
At the same time, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed technical changes to improve the scalability of the Ethereum Layer 1 network. His plan suggests promoting stateless nodes, which reduce hardware demands and improve decentralization.
Buterin also proposed EIP-4444, which limits the retention of old blockchain data to 36 days. This would reduce disk usage and maintain network efficiency.
However, ARK Invest’s Bitcoin purchase and Ethereum’s focus on scalability highlight a growing long-term commitment to the crypto sector. These developments and current technical signals reinforce a cautiously optimistic outlook across altcoins and primary tokens.
