Cryptocurrency market analyst Axel Adler Junior from research firm CryptoQuant released an update on June 27th indicating that the average monthly exchange flow for altcoins has reached approximately $1.6 billion, which is notably below the 2024 annual average of $2.5 billion.
This reduced activity is interpreted as a signal of market consolidation and a possible buildup phase ahead of a broader altcoin market movement. Historical data marked by green indicators on the chart shows that similar flow levels in early and late 2023, as well as in August and September 2024, preceded notable increases in altcoin prices.
As of June 27, the average monthly altcoin exchange flow stands at $1.6B, below the annual average of $2.5B. This moderate flow suggests asset consolidation and growing accumulation potential ahead of the next altseason wave.

In line with this analysis, Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Trading Capital, suggested that ETH may experience further price appreciation if it maintains a position above the $2,400 threshold.
So far, so good for $ETH.

Supporting this perspective, market commentator Crypto Fella noted that the ETH/BTC ratio has been declining, potentially signaling strength for ETH in the near term. However, Crypto Fella also cautioned that the anticipated altcoin season could be more selective compared to previous cycles, emphasizing the importance of choosing specific altcoins strategically, as broad-based rallies may not materialize across the entire market.
