BNB, DOGE, ADA, and SOL surged 3-4% in 24 hours while Bitcoin stagnated. The crypto market cap rose 1.39% to $2.33 trillion—fueled entirely by altcoins. The rotation followed a 6-3 Supreme Court ruling against Trump-era tariffs, defying expectations of a sell-off.

Blockchain advisor Anndy Lian observed: 'This outperformance stems from momentum unique to crypto markets.' bitcoin dominance held steady at 58.27%, suggesting investors aren't abandoning BTC but diversifying into higher-beta tokens.

A critical technical signal flashed: The MACD on the Others/BTC chart crossed its signal line for the first time since 2017. Analyst Dan Gambardello noted identical patterns preceded the 2017 and 2020 altcoin booms, calling it 'the bull trigger.' The signal coincides with impending PMI expansion as quantitative tightening concludes.

Despite a Fear and Greed Index reading of 14—deep in 'extreme fear' territory—prices climbed. Market structure suggests capital is positioning for an altseason, with traders favoring SOL, ADA, and meme coins like DOGE and SHIB.
