"Bitcoin is already at $120,000, why aren't my altcoins rising yet?" Recently, friends in the crypto circle have been asking this question. Don't worry! Today we will analyze the latest market trends—from the institutional frenzy around Ethereum, to the double bottom reversal of ADA, to the 'buyback pump' tactics of MEME coins, and those suddenly popular new concepts like 'PEP' and 'MSTR'... 💸
🚀 After Bitcoin reaches $120,000, is the 'sprint' for altcoins about to come?
Bitcoin surged directly to $120,000, setting a new historical high! But seasoned players know, BTC new highs ≠ altcoin rallies—historical patterns have played out three times similarly:
30,000 → 44,000 (2023)
45,000 → 71,000 (end of 2023)
71,000 → 105,000 (after Trump's victory)
What are the commonalities?
After Bitcoin breaks key price levels, altcoins will experience a 3-5 week explosion window, but subsequently BTC enters consolidation, and the increases in altcoins will be 'eaten away'. This time is no exception! After Bitcoin broke through the $107,000 resistance level, it headed straight for $120,000, and the signals for altcoin rotation have reappeared, but don’t expect a 'marathon celebration'—it may only be a 'sprint'! ⏳
Current Strategy:
BTC: After retracing to support at $115,600, rebounded, focusing on the $114,500 - $117,000 range during the day.
ETH: Institutions continue to buy, moving independently, with a 4-hour upward trend, short-term support at $3,020 - $3,050.
📌 Review of Historical Patterns:
From 2023 to now, every time Bitcoin breaks through key price levels, altcoins tend to experience a rebound window. For example:
March 2023: BTC broke through $30,000 to $44,000, altcoins then rebounded for 3-5 weeks.
December 2023: BTC broke through $45,000 to $71,000, altcoins welcome another rebound window.
July 2024 (after Trump's victory): BTC broke through $71,000 to $105,000, altcoins experience a brief explosion.
🔍 Current market signals:
After Bitcoin broke through the $107,000 resistance, it surged to $123,000, and it may even challenge $150,000. If historical patterns hold, we are currently at the starting point of a new altcoin season! However, it should be noted that this is not a long-term altcoin rally lasting half a year, but rather a short sprint.
⚠️ Risk Warning:
Bitcoin's dominance has not broken key levels, which means that the rise of altcoins may just be a short-term phenomenon.
If Bitcoin enters consolidation, the gains in altcoins may be 'eaten away', so be cautious of retracement risks.
💎 ETH: Institutions are buying, the logic behind the strengthening exchange rate.
Ethereum has been performing astonishingly lately! The ETH/BTC exchange rate is strengthening, US stocks and institutions are crazily buying, and the price has broken through $3,100. Why has ETH suddenly become so powerful?
Institutional demand explodes: Grayscale, BlackRock and other giants continue to increase holdings, strengthening Ethereum's position as the 'underlying infrastructure of blockchain'.
Ecosystem benefits: DeFi, NFT, and AI token projects are all choosing Ethereum, with network activity soaring.
Strong technical indicators: The 4-hour chart shows a strong upward trend, short-term retracement can focus on support at $3,020 - $3,050.
📊 Institutional buying data:
Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) continues to see net inflows, indicating strong demand from institutional investors for ETH.
Traditional financial giants like BlackRock are also positioning themselves in Ethereum, further driving up ETH prices.
📈 Technical Analysis:
Operational Advice:
For long positions, set stop-loss, initially target $3,200.
Don’t be greedy! Historical patterns tell us that as long as Bitcoin's dominance is not broken, altcoins may just be a 'flash in the pan'.
🐧 ADA: Double bottom reversal + major positive news from the payment card, target $1?
Cardano (ADA) has recently been like an 'indestructible cockroach'! The price has formed a classic double bottom pattern (support at $0.5, neckline at $0.76), surging 25.5% in the last 7 days, with a market cap back to $27 billion.
Two major catalysts:
Cardano Card payment card launch: not only can it be used for payments, but also stake ADA for earnings, secure loans, and even support real-world assets (RWA)! This move directly upgrades ADA from a 'pure public chain' to a 'financial tool'.
On-chain data explosion: DeFi locked value surged 93% in 7 days, TVL surpassed $438 million, market sentiment shifted from pessimism to optimism (funding rates turned positive).
Additionally, the 20-day simple moving average seems to be about to break above the 50-day moving average, a pattern known as a bullish golden cross in technical analysis.
Technical Targets:
Break above the $0.76 neckline → aim for $1.03 (+35% potential).
If bull market sentiment continues, analysts are calling for a long-term target of $3-5!
📌 Operational Advice:
Break above $0.76 for light positions, target $1.
If it retraces to around $0.6, consider gradually entering positions.
