Crypto Market Heats Up: Bitcoin (BTC) Sets Another ATH and Altcoin Season Approaches

Bitcoin (BTC) is unstoppable, breaking records and setting new all-time highs every chance it gets. The world’s leading crypto hit $85,000 earlier today, smashing its previous levels. Alts are also riding the bullish wave spurred by BTC’s run and anticipation for the upcoming altcoin season. 

Traders and investors are navigating unchartered waters as Bitcoin (BTC) continues to ascend. BTC briefly reached the $85,000 mark and is steadily trading at around $84,500.

Altcoin Season Draws Closer

Altcoins such as Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), and Solana (SOL) have also gained immensely. The rally started after Donald Trump won the US presidential election by a landslide, turning market sentiment overwhelmingly bullish. Alts are also reaping the benefits of BTC’s run, and momentum is building as altcoin season approaches. Bitcoin dominance usually peaks around 224 days after the Bitcoin halving, leading to a higher inflow of funds into smaller assets. As investors turn their attention to smaller assets, altcoin season is triggered, leading to enormous gains. 

Pauline Shangett, CMO of ChangeNOW, commented on the market’s performance, stating,

“Bitcoin’s rally is like nothing we’ve seen before, setting new records left, right, and centre. Since Trump's victory, the market has been overcome with interest and opportunity, and the future looks bright for digital assets.”

 Here is a look at popular altcoins with the potential for massive future gains. 

Ethereum (ETH) Rallies

Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency, has shown signs of relative weakness in recent months. Ethereum is the backbone of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts but has struggled with declining network activity, increasing its vulnerability compared to BTC. Despite the hype around Ethereum (ETH)’s newly adopted PoS system, the demand for its blockchain services has stagnated. Lower gas fees, while beneficial for users, have reduced the income for miners and validators and impacted ETH's price. Moreover, the supply of ETH has increased, creating further pressure on the asset's value. ETH’s price battled to stay afloat as investors turned to other altcoin opportunities but finally regained some ground. ETH turned a corner after BTC’s incredible run, breaking through the crucial $3,000 mark, gaining over 36% in the past week. At the time of writing, ETH traded around the $3,310 mark. 

Solana (SOL) and Dogecoin (DOGE) Emerge as Superstars

While BTC’s phenomenal rally continues to amaze, it also set the stage for Solana (SOL) and Dogecoin (DOGE) to rise to astronomical levels. Solana, the go-to blockchain for memecoin development, boasts some of the most unique features of any network. It offers excellent developmental tools and resources and creates an attractive environment for many developers to create and deploy new tokens effortlessly.

(SOL) has become a formidable player in the crypto space, and now it is targeting a considerable part of Ethereum’s (ETH) market share. Following Trump’s victory, SOL reached its highest price since November 2021 and has become the 4th largest cryptocurrency by market cap. Solana (SOL) trades at $218 after gaining nearly 37% in the past week.  

Dogecoin (DOGE) is undoubtedly following BTC’s upward momentum, surging over 106% in the past week and trading for $0.3225. The project is the largest memecoin by market cap and is the 6th largest crypto with a market cap exceeding $47.4 billion. Elon Musk, the world’s richest man with a net worth exceeding $300 billion, is the CEO of Tesla, owner of social media platform X (formerly Twitter), and one of the president-elect’s most prominent supporters and has long endorsed Dogecoin. Musk recently joined the Trump campaign and was integral to Trump’s victory, and his involvement with the republican party could see DOGE run to new highs in the coming months.
