CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost posted on the X platform, stating that there are clear signs of recovery in the altcoin market recently, and the market structure is changing. The “altcoin season” may have entered an early stage. Data shows that the total market capitalization of altcoins increased by about $215 billion in just three days, with a rise of over 24%, pushing the total market capitalization of altcoins back above $1 trillion. Darkfost pointed out that in this round of increase, small and medium-cap altcoins performed the strongest. Due to their lower circulating market capitalization, these assets are more sensitive to capital inflows and also have higher bidirectional volatility risks.

From the data on the Binance platform, the signals of recovery in the altcoin market have further strengthened. Since November last year, about 80% to 85% of altcoins have been below the 200-day moving average (200-DMA), while currently, 56% of the altcoins listed on Binance have regained this key technical indicator, indicating that the market may be entering a new cyclical phase. Darkfost believes that this trend reversal is related to several positive signals for cryptocurrencies recently released by Trump. Trump stated that the U.S. will “massively purchase Bitcoin” and urged Congress to push the passage of the CLARITY Act, while also claiming that his administration has ended the previous unfriendly policies towards the cryptocurrency industry.

Related remarks have boosted market sentiment, and against a backdrop of low trading volume and reduced selling pressure, a large amount of capital has begun to flow into the altcoin market, driving multiple sectors to rise simultaneously. Darkfost stated that based on historical experience, the current widespread increase in altcoins is usually seen as an important signal for the early start of altcoin season. However, he also warned that the market has entered an overbought area in the short term, and investors should be cautious of a phase adjustment. If the overall upward momentum continues, new investment opportunities may still arise.
