Altcoin Season Heats Up: 5 Cryptos Primed to Explode in July 2025

The altcoin season index just flashed its most bullish signal since 2021—and these digital assets are positioned to ride the wave.

When Bitcoin dominance drops below 40%, capital floods into smaller projects faster than VC money into an overhyped seed round. This time? The rotation's happening with rocket fuel.

Layer 1 contenders charging ahead

Ethereum killers aren't just surviving—they're thriving. Look for chains solving real throughput issues while maintaining decentralization.

DeFi's second wind

Yield protocols that survived the 2023 bloodbath now sport battle-tested code and sustainable APYs. The smart money's already rotating in.

NFT infrastructure plays

Beyond JPEGs, the infrastructure enabling digital ownership is where the real value accrues. One project's tokenomics finally make sense—a rarity in this space.

Will this altseason match 2021's insanity? Probably not. But for traders who missed the last cycle's life-changing gains? This might be their final boarding call—before Wall Street fully commoditizes the space with their usual lack of imagination.

JasmyCoin 

JasmyCoin (JASMY), commonly known as Japan’s Bitcoin, is one of the best crypto to buy as the altcoin season starts. 

On-chain metrics show that whales have continued to accumulate it this year. They now hold 6.93 million tokens, up by 40% from the same period last month. Similarly, the supply of JASMY held in exchanges has dropped by 6.4% in the last 3o days. 

Technicals are also highly supportive as it as jumped above the 50-day and 200-day moving averages. It is also about to flip the important resistance level at $0.021, its highest level on May 12. A break above that level will point to more gains, potentially to the 50% retracement level at $0.033. 

Polkadot 

Polkadot (DOT) is another best crypto to buy as the altcoin season starts. First, there are high chances that the SEC will approve a spot DOT ETF later this year, leading to more inflows from Wall Street investors. 

Second, Gavin Wood, its founder, has proposed ways to reduce inflation by eliminating staking rewards. Polkadot distributes 500 million DOT tokens a year, with most of the recipients selling them, creating selling pressure. His proposal will see the network create less than 9 million tokens.

Third, Polkadot’s ecosystem is growing after it ended the parachain auction process. Some of the top dApps in the network are Hydration, a DeFi platform whose assets are jumping, and FIFA Rivals, a game. 

Further, Polkadot Price formed a giant double-bottom pattern at $3.5 and a neckline at $5.4. This pattern points to more gains, potentially to the neckline at $5.40 and the 50% retracement at $7.35.

Dogwifhat 

Dogwifhat (WIF), a top meme coin in the solana (SOL) ecosystem, is another top crypto to buy because these tokens are likely to perform well in an altcoin season. 

WIF has already moved above the 200-day moving average. It also formed the cup-and-handle pattern with a depth of 76%. The upper side of this cup is $1.3473. Measuring the same distance from the cup’s upper side gives its target to $2.37, a few points below th 50% retracement point. 

There are other potential coins that may do well in this altcoin season. For example, Tron, XRP, and Stellar may thrive because of their exposure to stablecoins, while ethereum and Solana will attract more institutional investors.
