Altcoin
Altcoins Including ETH, SOL, SUI, LINK Take Charge
The broader cryptocurrency market has displayed a strong show over the weekend with the Bitcoin (BTC) price rallying close to $70,000 and altcoins taking the charge in a fresh surge. With 3.72% gains in the last 24 hours, Ethereum (ETH) leads the alt space shooting all the way to $2,750 levels. The recent crypto market rally sees participation from other alts like SOL, ADA, SUI, LINK, and others.
Altcoins Take Charge of the Crypto Market Rally
After holding strongly to $2,600 levels during the past week, market analysts believe that the Ethereum price has largely bottomed with 11 weeks of accumulation and is heading for a rally to $3,000 and above. Also, with Donald Trump’s odds of winning the next US Presidential election on the rise, investors are cheering with a broader crypto market rally.
The technical chart by Crypto McKenna clearly shows that ETH is forming an inverse head and shoulders pattern. Thus, it could continue its rally further to $3,000, and a further breakout above this could trigger a rally to $4,000 levels.
On the other hand, Ethereum competitor Solana has extended its rally with an additional 6.39% gain and is moving all the way to $170. levels. For the past several months, the SOL price has remained range bound between $130-$210. Popular crypto analyst Peter Brandt stated that the SOL is forming a cup and handle pattern on a multi-year chart. Thus, a breakout above $210 would set the stage for the Solana price rally.
Another altcoin joining the crypto market rally, and everyone’s favorite recently, is SUI. While comfortably taking support at $2.0, the SUI price has reversed its trajectory and is currently trading 33.88% up at $2.15. The SUI price, which is already up by a staggering 460% over the past year, is set to continue to rally further to $2.60, noted crypto analyst Ali Martinez. He added that as long as SUI holds $2.0 and reverses its trajectory, it will continue to rally to $2.60.

Will Bitcoin (BTC) Follow With New All-Time High?
The world’s largest crypto Bitcoin (BTC) has staged a strong recovery with more than 7% gains over the past week being very much part of the crypto market rally. However, the BTC price still needs to clear past the $70,000 resistance to hit a new all-time high in October. On the other hand, the Bitcoin futures open interest is surging pretty fast showing that investors continue to remain bullish over the long term.
Last week, the US spot Bitcoin ETFs netted more than $2.4 billion in weekly inflows amid the growing optimism and outlook ahead of the US elections. Republican candidate Donald Trump is openly pro-crypto, with Bitcoin often being considered a “Trump trade”. David Lawant, head of research at crypto prime broker FalconX said:
The Bitcoin options market indicates that “forward implied volatility is heavily clustered around the election day and somewhat subdued leading to it and some time after it”.
