Early Signals of Altcoin Season Emerge as Legacy Tokens Rally Post Bitcoin and XRP Highs
Vintage cryptocurrencies are staging a comeback. Ethereum Classic, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash surged Friday following XRP's seven-year breakout and Bitcoin's fresh all-time high earlier this week. The rally extends to other altcoins including Uniswap, Dogecoin, and Hedera, suggesting capital may be rotating beyond blue-chip assets.
"We're seeing early signals of an altcoin season, but it's not fully underway yet," said Akshat Vaidya, CIO of Maelstrom. bitcoin dominance remains elevated above 60%, though its gradual decline coupled with Ethereum's momentum hints at growing risk appetite. Market veterans recall similar patterns from previous cycles where altcoins rallied after Bitcoin peaks.
The movement remains selective—established tokens are leading while newer projects await their turn. ethereum Classic's outperformance stands out, potentially benefiting from its proof-of-work heritage as Ethereum transitions to staking. This bifurcation suggests traders are favoring assets with proven track records during this initial phase of altcoin resurgence.
