As the crypto community stands on the brink of what could be a major season for the altcoin market, numerous indicators suggest that a significant market shift may soon be underway.
Notably, the focus within the crypto market is poised to transition from Bitcoin to its contenders—altcoins—which are speculated to offer higher returns in the coming months.
Anticipating the Altcoin Uptick In These Months
Prominent crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe has been vocal about this impending shift. According to Van de Poppe, the period from late June to October could be pivotal for altcoins.
This timeframe is expected to mark a significant rally, bringing altcoin values back in alignment with their “historical norms.” This anticipation is based on the current subdued movements and the foundational setups within the market that hint at a possible exponential rise.

I think we’ll be seeing a lot of momentum from late June until September – October.

The underpinnings of the expected altcoin surge seem to be tied intricately to the movements of Bitcoin. Often seen as the bellwether for the broader crypto market, Bitcoin’s price fluctuations have a cascading effect on altcoins.
Analysts suggest that if Bitcoin experiences a dip, it could catalyze a shift in investor focus towards altcoins. The rationale is that investors will start hunting for higher returns, which altcoins are poised to provide during such a market phase.
Van de Poppe’s in-depth analysis indicates that this is more than mere speculation. Historical data and market dynamics suggest that altcoins gain momentum as Bitcoin consolidates or retracts.
This pattern is expected to trigger a “recursive demand shock” for altcoins, propelling their prices to new heights.
Market Indicators and Analyst Insights
Recent market activities provide concrete data to support this analysis. The altcoin market cap, which has gradually increased, surged from $1.108 trillion last week to a current valuation above $1.166, marking a resurgence in investor interest and market activity.

This is paralleled by insights from other market analysts who have observed critical technical patterns that suggest an impending alt season.
For instance, a notable crypto analyst, Moustache, highlighted a breakout from the Gaussian Channel on several altcoin charts—a technical indicator often associated with significant price movements.
According to Moustache, we witnessed substantial market rallies the last time Altcoins broke out of the Gaussian Channel. The current setup is very similar, and the market could be on the cusp of another major bull run.

Friendly reminder:
The last time Altcoins broke out of the Gaussian Channel and retested it was almost 4 years ago.
Back then we also saw a buy signal in the supertrend as well as the EMA 10, which withstood the entire run.

Furthermore, data from the analytics firm Santiment underscores this sentiment with specific examples. Altcoins like Shiba Inu and Cardano have seen a doubling in large-scale transactions, indicating a growing interest from whale investors.
This spike in large transactions is often a precursor to significant price movements, suggesting that substantial capital is entering the altcoin markets, poised to drive up prices.

Samuel Edyme
Meet Samuel Edyme, Nickname – HIM-buktu. A web3 content writer, journalist, and aspiring trader, Edyme is as versatile as they come. With a knack for words and a nose for trends, he has penned pieces for numerous industry player, including AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, among others.
Edyme’s foray into the crypto universe is nothing short of cinematic. His journey began not with a triumphant investment, but with a scam. Yes, a Ponzi scheme that used crypto as payment roped him in. Rather than retreating, he emerged wiser and more determined, channeling his experience into over three years of insightful market analysis.
Before becoming the voice of reason in the crypto space, Edyme was the quintessential crypto degen. He aped into anything that promised a quick buck, anything ape-able, learning the ropes the hard way. These hands-on experience through major market events—like the Terra Luna crash, the wave of bankruptcies in crypto firms, the notorious FTX collapse, and even CZ’s arrest—has honed his keen sense of market dynamics.
When he isn’t crafting engaging crypto content, you’ll find Edyme backtesting charts, studying both forex and synthetic indices. His dedication to mastering the art of trading is as relentless as his pursuit of the next big story. Away from his screens, he can be found in the gym, airpods in, working out and listening to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some Z’s or scrolling through Elon Musk’s very own X platform—(oops, another screen activity, my bad…)
Well, being an introvert, Edyme thrives in the digital realm, preferring online interaction over offline encounters—(don’t judge, that’s just how he is built). His determination is quite unwavering to be honest, and he embodies the philosophy of continuous improvement, or “kaizen,” striving to be 1% better every day. His mantras, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” reflect his resilient outlook and how he lives his life.
In a nutshell, Samuel Edyme was born efficient, driven by ambition, and perhaps a touch fierce. He’s neither artistic nor unrealistic, and certainly not chauvinistic. Think of him as Bruce Willis in a train wreck—unflappable. Edyme is like trading in your car for a jet—bold. He’s the guy who’d ask his boss for a pay cut just to prove a point—(uhhh…). He is like watching your kid take his first steps. Imagine Bill Gates struggling with rent—okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the idea, yeah. Unbelievable? Yes. Inconceivable? Perhaps.
Edyme sees himself as a fairly reasonable guy, albeit a bit stubborn. Normal to you is not to him. He is not the one to take the easy road, and why would he? That’s just not the way he roll. He has these favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds” that resonate deeply with him: “What you think’s probably unfeasible, I’ve done already a hundredfold.”
PS—Edyme is HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. He even had his DNA tested, and guess what? He’s 100% Him-alayan. Screw it, he ate the opp.
