The final week of April delivered a jolt of optimism to a crypto market that has spent most of the year wrestling with macro cross-currents. Bitcoin’s resilience above the psychological $90,000–$95,000 level, an unexpected surge in stablecoin issuance and a swarm of textbook bullish patterns across large-caps and meme names have converged to create what veteran chartist Josh Olszewicz calls “one of the cleanest multi-asset breakout tapes we’ve seen since late 2023.” Crypto Bull Run Back? Olszewicz’s argument begins and ends with liquidity. Two consecutive one-billion-dollar Tether mints on 29 April pushed combined USDT + USDC supply to a fresh all-time high, an event he frames as an unequivocal tailwind for speculative assets. “Tether’s been printing, printing, and minting, baby,” he said, emphasising that the dual $1 billion tranches arrived alongside a clear premium in the USDT/USD pair on Kraken—evidence, in his view, of real demand rather than opportunistic treasury rebalancing. “Typically that means people are deploying it in alts. That’s why stable-coin mints—specifically Tether—[are] generally bullish for alts because people are using it to speculate.” The liquidity pulse arrives just as several macro obstacles appear to be receding. Bitcoin survived a negative-print US GDP release, sticky PCE inflation data and what Olszewicz called “some jobs numbers that came out this week,” without surrendering its three-month up-trend. Meanwhile gold has rolled over and the Dollar Index remains pinned near cycle lows, recreating the “everything-rally” backdrop that powered crypto’s late-2023 melt-up. Funding markets, however, are delivering a curious split: “We still have negative funding on the BTC side on crypto exchanges. We have positive funding in legacy land with futures. So that’s very bizarre right now, but so far so good.” Against that backdrop, Olszewicz drills into the Ichimoku-cloud mechanics that underpin his altcoin watch-list. The premise is as old as the indicator itself: a daily candle close inside the cloud accompanied by a bullish Tenkan-Kijun (TK) cross triggers a mean-reversion target to the opposing edge of the cloud. “All these trades are always the same. I never treat them differently,” he said. “You get a better entry… it’s just a game of probabilities.” The strategy sets clear invalidations—either the Kijun line or a lower-low—and provides what he characterises as Dow-theory mean-reversion framed through an Ichimoku lens. That formula is now flashing across a surprising breadth of assets. Solana And Curve Solana sits at the top of his list. The layer-one token has posted six consecutive red daily candles, sculpting the “right shoulder” of an inverted head-and-shoulders whose neckline rises toward $200. “What I’ve got to laser focus on is this potential edge-to-edge move,” he explained, noting that ideal entries would materialise between $140 and $120 but are not essential. “Within the next week or two, you should get a great signal on an entry here on SOL just from the cloud.” Related Reading: XRP Gains Ground in Weekly Crypto Inflows as Ethereum Continues Downtrend Curve, by contrast, is already in motion—up double-digits on a day when most altcoins bled. “Why is it up 10 percent today and everything else is down? I don’t have a good answer for that,” he admitted. Yet the technical structure leaves little to interpret: a multi-month flat-bottom accumulation, a candle close inside the cloud near its lower boundary and a bullish TK cross. “You’re on your journey to somewhere up here—the other edge of the cloud,” he said, implying a measured-move objective near $1.20 that would represent a near-doubling from current levels. Ethereum And Litecoin Where Solana and Curve show imminent triggers, Ethereum remains the quintessential laggard, still chiselling out what Olszewicz labels a bottoming process. “It’s going to take ETH kicking and screaming to get started here […] but this is a bottom in process. Certainly may take you into June.” The calculus is familiar: traders intent on rotation may find better risk-adjusted returns elsewhere, returning to ETH only once its own daily cloud admits a candle close. Litecoin exhibits a similar dynamic, with an inverted head-and-shoulders outline that “feels a little early,” perhaps ripening by early June. FET, LINK, ALGO Fetch.ai breached the cloud on April 23 and already sports a bullish TK cross, yet Olszewicz acknowledges it arrives “after two or three weeks of up-move,” reducing risk-reward.

In each instance, the analyst reiterates that until the formal triggers print, the probability of follow-through remains statistically lower. DOGE, PEPE And WIF The most combustible corner of the market—the meme cohort—is, in his telling, already foreshadowing a retail return. Dogecoin intrigues him most. “Along with ENA, one of the best bang for your bucks is Doge,” he said, though he concedes the pattern needs another week to sculpt a complete right-shoulder. He is explicit about his trigger: “Give it another week or two and this is definitely one of the better-looking setups,” with attention fixed on the $0.175 area. PEPE presents fewer moving parts: it is inside the cloud with a bullish TK cross and a clear neckline at the Kijun. “If ETH even sneezes higher, I expect this to just be up twenty-five percent one day,” he said, while cautioning that a transitional “negative twenty percent day” could precede the pop. WIF, for its part, is “slamming against the cloud,” on the cusp of its own TK cross. Having retraced from $4.80 to current levels, it offers what he calls “a great-looking setup,” albeit one where “the greed in me always wants an entry down here”—a reference to a hypothetical bid parked at the cloud’s lower edge. BTC Dominance Bitcoin dominance, still pressing cycle highs, complicates the rotation narrative. “Does it really matter that you’re not all-in BTC if this is an extreme in dominance?” he asked rhetorically. His answer is temporal. Dominance mattered enormously at the October 2023 bottom, and he suspects it will matter again once it rolls over. “Come May, June, I think we will start to see the outperformance of the altcoins,” he predicts, but he tempers that with a blunt reminder: “It hasn’t made sense to sit in these BTC pairs.” The exception is Solana’s BTC chart, which mirrors the USD thesis with a half-formed inverted head-and-shoulders and a cloud target significantly higher. At press time, SOL traded at $151.90. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
In an interview with popular crypto-focused YouTube channel Altcoin Daily, veteran financier and SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci revealed his top altcoins to buy and hold in 2025. Scaramucci, a former White House Communications Director and longtime Wall Street professional, provided his insights on various crypto assets—starting with his bullish stance on Ethereum (ETH) and expanding to a range of altcoins he believes will play a central role in shaping the future of decentralized technology. Ethereum: The Long-Term Crypto Winner Scaramucci began by identifying Ethereum as one of his key picks for the coming years. According to him, Ethereum’s market perception has undergone cyclical changes, which he likened to trends going “in and out of fashion.” Reflecting on his decades of experience in traditional finance, Scaramucci explained: Related Reading: Crypto Market Will Peak In Mid To Late March, Predicts Arthur Hayes “When I got into the industry, biotech stocks were hot, then it flipped over to insurance stocks, and then it was the world of alternative investing in hedge funds […] We go through waves and cycles of what’s in and out of fashion. And so weirdly, Ethereum is like out of fashion a little bit, which I’m surprised by because it’s got such great applications and it’s got a muscularity to it […] and it’s got dominance. So I do believe Ethereum is a winner, and I think it’s a long-term winner.” The billionaire investor underscored Ethereum’s robust ecosystem, highlighting its wide-ranging utility and established track record. His view is that while newer chains may offer speed and lower costs, Ethereum still holds a vital position as the smart contract platform of choice for countless decentralized applications (dApps) and protocols. Solana (SOL) After reaffirming his faith in Ethereum, Scaramucci turned his attention to Solana (SOL), touting its performance and cost-effectiveness: “I think that Solana—it’s cheaper and faster, and now that network is handling lots of volume. It’s got a good cross-section of different things going on […] We’re long a lot of Solana. I’ll be fully disclosed and tell you that.” Polkadot (DOT) Continuing his survey of promising altcoins, Scaramucci singled out Polkadot (DOT) for its potential in Web3 and gaming: “I own Polkadot. I like what Polkadot is capable of doing in the gaming industry, and I’m still a big believer that Web3 gaming will happen […] There’ll be sort of a Renaissance there.” Related Reading: Best Altcoins In 2025: Top Analyst Reveals His Picks He drew an analogy between today’s early-stage Web3 environment and the era of VHS tapes and Blockbuster Video. While it may be difficult to visualize the full potential of blockchain-based gaming experiences right now, Scaramucci believes Polkadot’s interoperability-focused platform could be instrumental in powering immersive digital ecosystems that lie just over the horizon. Avalanche (AVAX) Scaramucci did not stop there, briefly touching on Avalanche (AVAX) as another network he foresees doing well in the broader crypto market. Although he provided fewer specific details, his endorsement points to Avalanche’s known strengths—scalability, fast finality, and a growing suite of decentralized finance (DeFi) projects. “I think Avalanche will do well,” he stated. Algorand (ALGO) Turning to Algorand, Scaramucci shared insights from his personal holding in the asset, which he’s maintained for four years. Acknowledging the platform’s management shifts, he nevertheless remains optimistic: “I think [Algorand] lost a step when they made some management changes, but there’s a guy by the name of John Wood there […] I think he’s a very, very, very smart guy, and he’s putting some stuff together there, and I think that one is undervalued.” Sui And Aptos Rounding out his altcoin picks, Scaramucci also named Sui (SUI) and Aptos (APT) as projects with solid long-term prospects: “Sui and Aptos—I’m a long-term believer in those as well. I don’t think there’ll be one chain.” Ultimately, Scaramucci illustrated his broader stance on the crypto asset landscape, underlining Bitcoin as the undisputed market leader, yet insisting that alternative blockchains will also play crucial roles: “Bitcoin is the pope, but there’s a college of cardinals… that will be very useful in terms of what their applications are and their networks ultimately become over the next five to fifteen years.” At press time, ETH traded at $3,319.

With the new year just one day away, crypto analyst Alex Wacy (@wacy_time1) shared an overview of what he calls the best altcoins heading into 2025. The analyst, who has amassed an audience of over 190,000 followers on X, highlighted several projects that he believes have the potential to dominate in the potential coming altseason. Best Altcoins In 2025 He begins with Render (RNDR), describing it as a decentralized GPU rendering platform for AI, metaverse, and creative content. He maintained that “Render is poised to become a key player in the virtual future,” pointing to its $3.66 billion market capitalization as evidence of investor confidence. Following closely is Virtual, an AI-driven avatar initiative that is pegged at $3.41 billion in market cap, with Wacy touting Virtual as “the growth leader in 2024 in the virtual avatar sector” and predicting increasing adoption for metaverse, gaming, and social media applications. Wacy also turns his attention to SEKOIA, mentioning its focus on identifying and mentoring emerging AI talent. Although smaller in scale at a $94 million market cap, this autonomous AI investment agent uses advanced pattern recognition and quantifiable predictions to gain a foothold in a competitive space. Related Reading: Altcoins To Explode In Early 2025: Analyst Says “Grand Finale” Is Around The Corner Next in line for the best altcoins in 2025 is Pengu, which he calls “the official coin of Paddy Penguin, a major force in crypto.” Its substantial community and cultural traction reflect a hefty $2.28 billion market valuation, and its omnipresence in ETF ads combined with over 90 billion visits appear to confirm its cult-like following. The list of best altcoins continues with Clearpool (CPOOL), a Decentralized Capital Markets Ecosystem valued at $341 million that provides insured loans to institutional borrowers in the DeFi arena through a dynamic interest model. The analyst noted that Clearpool’s approach to decentralized lending could offer a unique avenue for strategic investors. He also spotlights Bittensor (Tao), a project intent on decentralizing AI solutions through an open ecosystem, weighed at $3.48 billion, and Hyperliquid (HYPE), a decentralized perpetuals exchange living on its own L1 with a $9.23 market cap. He describes Hype’s vision as “a high-speed, low-cost, transparent solution for perpetual futures,” though he advises caution, remarking that prospective investors should “research to understand its risks and potential.” Io.net, which sits at $397 million, is categorized as a decentralized GPU network that reduces costs for AI developers, while CFG (Centric) aims to bridge DeFi with real-world assets. This $162 million project focuses on stable returns generated from real fiat value rather than solely leveraging volatile crypto. Akash Network (AKT), valued at $746 million, is labeled by Wacy a “supercloud” that transforms cloud computing through a decentralized marketplace, and Ethena (ENA), at $2.69 billion, provides a synthetic dollar protocol on Ethereum, touted as “a crypto-native, bank-free solution for money.” Wacy’s list also featured Helium (HNT) with a $1.13 billion market cap, identified for its decentralized IoT network, and Griffain in the Solana ecosystem, with a $211 million market cap, delivering scalable DeFi solutions for token swaps while upholding transparency. Related Reading: Is Altcoin Season Here Already? VanEck Answers As Bitcoin Price Struggles Below $100,000 The analyst also highlights Grasso (GRASS) in his list of the best altcoins for 2025 and its $683 million market cap, describing its decentralized data collection network for AI training as both functional and user-friendly. VitaDAO (VITA) is in Wacy’s focus because of its community-governed DAO funding longevity research. Its compact $54 million market cap appears poised for growth as members actively engage in decision-making and ownership, signifying a communal approach to biotech research in crypto. Spectral, carrying a $194 million market cap, offers on-chain agents for easier application creation and includes a syntax tool that transforms natural language into Solidity. ETIGEN, or Energy Layer, at $170 million, extends novel concepts of restorative energy on Ethereum, and ONDO, with an impressive $2.83 billion market cap, aims to open up institutional-grade DeFi services and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. Wacy further singles out AIXTB, at $377M, which monitors crypto-related discussions via a proprietary engine to uncover high-sentiment opportunities, and Ether.fi (ETHFI), priced at $446M, which supports non-custodial ETH staking and DeFi integration. Throughout his breakdown, he underscored the cyclical nature of the crypto market, stating that these best altcoins “could see significant growth in 2025” once capital flow rotates away from Bitcoin and into high-potential altcoin narratives. His overall thesis hinges on what he perceives as a predictable pattern in every major market cycle. “Altcoins typically pumping when BTC Dominance starts a strong downtrend,” the analyst wrote. He cited the example from 2021, when Bitcoin’s dominance fell from around 73% to 40%, triggering a monumental rally for altcoins like SOL, ADA, and DOGE. Pointing out that current BTC dominance is about 55%, which he calls a “significant resistance zone,” he predicts a swift drop to 40% if a breakdown occurs. “As I mentioned before, my bet for the altseason is in the spring of 2025,” he said, while admitting that he also shares the common sentiment of disbelief that surrounds every cycle. “That’s okay, it means the market is doing a good job of ‘smoking people out.’ Patience friends, patience always pays off,” he concluded. At press time, the Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) stood at 58.02%. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
Miles Deutscher, a prominent crypto analyst with over 575,000 followers on X (formerly Twitter), has unveiled his top ten artificial intelligence (AI) altcoins poised for significant growth by 2025. Emphasizing the burgeoning potential of the AI sector within the cryptocurrency landscape, Deutscher suggests that this could be “the biggest opportunity of the bull run.” Why AI Offers A Lot Of Potential Deutscher highlights the rapid expansion of the global AI market, noting that it grew by approximately $50 billion between 2023 and 2024. Projections estimate a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 28.46%, potentially surpassing $826 billion by 2030. Despite AI’s significant presence in public discourse—accounting for nearly one-third of attention in the crypto space—it currently ranks as the 34th largest crypto sector by market capitalization, trailing behind sectors like liquid staking, memecoins, and decentralized finance (DeFi). “Yet, AI is still only the 34th ranked crypto sector by market cap, behind liquid staking, dog memes, DeFi, and more. I could easily see AI as a top 5-10 sector in a year’s time,” Deutscher stated. He argues that this disparity presents a massive opportunity for investors. “Many mid-low cap AI tokens are still sitting at ridiculously low valuations. All it takes is a strong rotation into AI for many of these to quickly reprice 5-10x higher,” he explained. Deutscher outlines his fundamental thesis for why AI crypto is set for substantial growth. Firstly, he notes that everyone is becoming aware of how impactful AI will be on society. “Either people are scared, excited, or intrigued by the latest developments. This already cements AI in general in the minds of the masses,” he said. Related Reading: Crypto Expert Unveils 15 Surprising Truths About This Bull Run You Need To Know Secondly, he points out that AI is constantly innovating, with new products regularly entering the market. “Every time a new AI product is released, this puts even more focus on the sector. And crypto is an attention economy. More eyeballs equals more speculation,” Deutscher observed. Thirdly, he believes that crypto offers a lower barrier to gain exposure to the growth of AI. “Crypto is easier to access, able to be fractionalized, and generally ‘cheaper’ than investing in, let’s say, AI equities. For retail, this is a massive benefit,” he asserted. Finally, he highlights the recent rise of AI agents, which has made people aware of the power of AI integrated with crypto. “We’re moving into a future where AI agents will trade autonomously on-chain for you, manage your portfolio and risk, DeFi, and more. It’s going to completely change the landscape of crypto,” Deutscher predicted. He also notes that this trend is occurring in traditional tech sectors, with corporations like Adobe and Expedia integrating AI agents into their operations. Focusing on the AI and crypto landscape, Deutscher mentions that he is investing across various verticals, with a particular emphasis on AI agents and AI infrastructure. He is concentrating on “pick-and-shovel infrastructure protocols” rather than individual AI agents or broader DePIN plays. He discloses that he holds positions in all the projects he mentions, some as a strategic advisor and investor. Top 10 AI Altcoins Deutscher’s top ten AI altcoins, ordered from the largest to the smallest market capitalization, are as follows. First on the list is Bittensor (TAO), which he describes as the AI market leader. Bittensor focuses on decentralizing AI research and has already seen significant adoption in scientific communities. “With the recent rollout of EVM compatibility, the network has taken a huge step forward, opening the door for developers to build DeFi ecosystems and unlock new use cases,” Deutscher noted. Second is NEAR Protocol (NEAR), which he identifies as the leading Layer 1 (L1) blockchain intersecting with AI. “For those bullish on both verticals, NEAR serves as a solid proxy. Fun fact: Since its mainnet launch in October 2020, it has maintained 100% uptime,” he remarked. Third is Grass (GRASS), a standout launch this cycle due to its data pipeline that seamlessly connects the real world with AI and crypto. “Recent developments in AI make data one of the most valuable commodities in the world. Grass uses crypto incentives to create a data pipeline that most AI companies otherwise cannot tap into,” he explained. He added that the demand for the Grass network is undeniable and that the protocol’s future looks incredibly promising. Related Reading: 9 Crypto Predictions For 2025: Nansen CEO Forecasts Biggest Bull Run Ever Fourth is Spectral (SPEC), one of the leading AI agent infrastructure plays, allowing anyone to deploy and engage with AI agents. “With Syntax V2, you’ll be able to interact with sentient agents with personalities, which trade on Hyperliquid in accordance with the community’s input. It’s an interesting mix of fun, collaboration, and speculation,” Deutscher commented. Fifth is Mode Network (MODE), which, although known as a Layer 2 (L2) solution, has been building AI technology for over a year. “They are leading the future of DeFi by facilitating the deployment of AI-driven agents, which will autonomously farm yield and optimize your portfolio on your behalf,” he said. Sixth on the list is NeuralAI (NEURAL), connecting AI and gaming—two of crypto’s biggest adoption drivers. “They just announced SentiOS, which supplies autonomous AI to create, populate, and bring virtual worlds and economies to life,” Deutscher mentioned. Seventh is PinLinkAi, where Deutscher is a strategic advisor and investor. PinLink is the first real-world asset-tokenized DePIN platform, empowering the fractional ownership of yield-bearing assets, physical or digital. “They have also recently partnered with Akash, Pendle, FetchAI, OpenSea, Alephium, ParallelAI, and more. Their business development is on another level,” he praised. Eighth is Zero1 Labs (DEAI), another project where he serves as a strategic advisor and investor. Zero1 Labs enables innovators to build decentralized AI applications with fully homomorphic encryption, ensuring secure data governance and complete privacy. “Think of it as a pick-and-shovel AI infrastructure play. With a market cap of around $76 million, this is one of my ‘higher upside’ AI bets,” Deutscher revealed. He noted the debut of Seraphnet, the first of many projects planned through their incubator. Ninth is Empyreal, also a project where he is an advisor and investor. As a believer in AI agents, Deutscher highlights that Empyreal provides AI infrastructure to turn social media messages into on-chain actions like trades and swaps through their Simulacrum platform. “It’s super cool,” he added. Tenth is enqAI (ENQAI), another project where Deutscher is involved as an advisor and investor. EnqAI is a decentralized large language model network solving the bias and censorship issues common to centralized AI. “Despite its $20 million market cap, enqAI already has 20,000 monthly active users across 50-plus countries and has already handled over one million API requests with minimal downtime or lags,” he highlighted. As a bonus, Deutscher mentions Guru Network (GURU), where he is also an advisor and investor. With its Layer 3 mainnet now live, Guru powers AI processors and chatbots with a decentralized exchange, stablecoin support, bridges, and base chain integration. “I’ve been working with Guru to launch a Telegram and Discord mini-app, delivering a full turnkey solution for DeFi on Telegram. It’s going to be very cool!” he exclaimed. Deutscher emphasizes the importance of risk management. He reveals that his personal portfolio balance is approximately 70% large caps and 30% small to mid caps. “I recommend that you do your own research, and if you do decide to take a position in any of these protocols, make sure to manage position sizing and risk in line with your goals and overall strategy,” he advised. At press time, TAO traded at $630.80. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
In his latest video analysis titled “I Just APED Into This Hidden RWA Altcoin Gem! [20x Potential],” prominent crypto analyst Miles Deutscher unveiled Chintai (CHEX) as his latest high-conviction investment within the Real World Assets (RWA) sector. Deutscher believes Chintai could offer significant upside potential—up to 1,900% (20x)—in the upcoming market cycle. Deutscher has consistently highlighted RWA tokens as one of his top investment narratives, ranking third behind memecoins and AI for this crypto bull run. “When I look at narratives that can actually change the fabric of crypto and really offer a new value add, I think RWA is massive,” he stated. He emphasized the growing appeal of on-chain treasury yields, especially as traditional decentralized finance (DeFi) yields diminish and interest rates decline. The analyst previously capitalized on early investments in ONDO and Mantra (OM), both of which have seen substantial gains. ONDO, for instance, delivered a 7x return from his initial entry point. However, Deutscher now considers these assets to be reaching overvalued territories. “Valuation-wise, though, it’s pretty insane considering the fact that its market cap’s a billion, but it’s fully diluted valuation (FDV) is $7.1 billion,” he said regarding ONDO. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Unveils The ‘True Time To Sell It All’: Here’s When Deutscher has been reallocating his capital into what he perceives as undervalued opportunities within the RWA space. Alongside Clearpool (CPOOL), which he mentioned has already gained 42% since his initial disclosure, Chintai (CHEX) stands out as his newest and largest RWA position. “This one I’m also really, really bullish on. It’s tough for me to say if I’m most bullish on this, but it might be the one that I’m most bullish on in the RWA sector,” he remarked. Chintai differentiates itself by being one of the few RWA-focused layer-one blockchains regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). “If you know Singapore, they are so strict with due diligence. It’s really hard to get a license; they fought for a license and they’ve got it,” Deutscher noted. This regulatory approval positions Chintai to attract significant institutional capital, potentially channeling billions of dollars in total value locked (TVL) onto their chain. The analyst highlighted Chintai’s robust fundamentals, including its extensive list of major clients and partnerships, such as DHC, Finstable, and Greengate. “They are basically a marketplace for tokenization, an L1 blockchain for RWA tokenization,” he explained. The platform has already facilitated over $630 million worth of loans and is set to launch “OZEAN,” a blockchain for RWA yield supported by Optimism, early next year. Related Reading: Top Crypto Analyst Unveils Best Altcoins For The 2025 Bull Run From a valuation perspective, Deutscher sees substantial upside potential. Chintai currently has an FDV of approximately $250 million, significantly lower than Mantra’s $1.37 billion FDV. “If CHEX—even in a static market without the market growing at all—does a 6x, that’s just now matching Mantra,” he calculated. Considering the potential growth of the RWA market, the upside could be even more pronounced. “What if the RWA market 2x’s? Because I think it’s going to be a very strong narrative next year; then you could be looking at a 14x.” Despite its strong fundamentals, Deutscher acknowledges that Chintai’s lower valuation compared to its peers is largely due to a lack of market awareness. “Why is there that discrepancy despite the fundamentals being just as, if not more strong, for Chintai? Just marketing,” he observed. Mantra has excelled in marketing efforts, attracting considerable attention in the crypto community. “Once Chintai can improve its awareness—and I’m actually giving it more awareness by making this video—that is the only key that it’s missing.” On the technical front, Deutscher finds Chintai’s chart promising. “What I also like from a technical analysis perspective is the fact it’s hovering above this zone, which, if you are technically inclined, you have that technical invalidation,” he said, pointing out the potential for a significant move to previous highs. He remains cautiously optimistic about price targets, emphasizing prudent profit-taking strategies. “I don’t want to get carried away with crazy price targets… I’m never greedy in this market.” Deutscher concludes that Chintai’s combination of regulatory compliance, institutional appeal, and undervalued status makes it a compelling investment. “They can actually attract institutional capital because of the licensing and because of the product they’ve built,” he affirmed. At press time, CHEX traded at $0.2874. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
Miles Deutscher, a prominent analyst with 551,000 followers on X, disclosed his portfolio of best altcoins for the anticipated 2025 crypto bull run. In his latest video, “My NEW Ultimate Crypto Portfolio For The 2025 Bull Run! [MUST-HOLD Altcoins],” Deutscher provided an in-depth analysis of his selections, emphasizing a strategic concentration on high-conviction investments across diverse sectors. Deutscher began by outlining his approach to portfolio construction, highlighting the importance of limiting core holdings to fifteen altcoins spread across six key sectors: meme coins, artificial intelligence (AI) tokens, infrastructure projects, gaming, real-world assets (RWA), and decentralized finance (DeFi). This structure is designed to enhance focus and manageability, particularly for investors who may not have the time to actively manage a larger number of positions. “Based on the feedback from my community, I believe it’s better in this market to concentrate into high conviction bets,” Deutscher stated. Best Altcoins For The 2025 Crypto Bull Run In the meme coin sector, which Deutscher allocates a substantial 25% of his portfolio to, he identified three primary candidates: WIF, PEPE, and SPX. WIF, described as the leading meme coin on the Solana blockchain by Deutscher: “It’s pretty much the number one Solana kind of beta meme coin. Anons talk about it a lot. It’s got major exchanges. Coinbase listings being teased coincidentally. It’s actually at a very nice DCA Zone at the time of recording this video.” Pepe, an Ethereum-based meme coin, benefits from widespread recognition and strong community distribution. “I do like Pepe because it’s the leading kind of ETH beta meme coin. It’s one of the most famous memes in the history of the internet and for that reason I think it commands a lot of mind share,” Deutscher remarked. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Unveils The ‘True Time To Sell It All’: Here’s When SPX6900, endorsed by Murad Mahmudov, a leading figure in the meme coin space, is anticipated to attract substantial retail capital during market upswings. “Number three is SPX because […] Murad is the leader of memes. His number one shill and his number one meme holding is SPX, so this is one that I think is going to have momentum as retail comes in,” Deutscher remarked. Turning to the AI sector, Deutscher also allocates 25% of his portfolio to AI-focused projects, recognizing the burgeoning interest and potential in this field. His top picks include TAO, NEAR, and Spectral. TAO is positioned as the leader in decentralized AI, “focused on the enterprise side,” according to the analyst. NEAR, a top AI layer-one protocol, is selected for its potential to rebound during market dips and its foundational role in AI-driven applications, despite recent underperformance. Spectral (SPEC) is the “top AI agent play in crypto” for Deutscher. “They’ve got big backers. There’s no [token] unlock for another six months. You can basically automate your trading on-chain via AI agents,” he added. In the infrastructure sector, Deutscher maintains an equal 25% allocation, focusing on foundational projects that underpin the crypto ecosystem. Solana (SOL) remains his primary choice, recognized for its role as the launchpad for new meme and AI trends, and projected to deliver consistent returns without the explosive growth potential of smaller altcoins. Related Reading: Crypto Craze: Investor Nets A 3,360% Gain, Turning $86,000 Into $3.75 Million Fantom (FTM) is favored by Deutscher for its strong narrative. “I just think it’s got a great narrative with Sonic [upgrade]. Andre [Cronje] is a big figure in the space. You’ve had that cool down in terms of price and I think it’ll be one of the prevalent and l1’s this cycle,” the analyst claims. Third, Deutscher picks Aptos (APT) over Sui (SUI) because of its higher potential: “I picked Aptos […] because I just think in terms of a pair trade Aptos is probably the next to run after SUI already went on a massive run. That’s the only reason and the other thing is the price is looking good from a TA point of view. It’s still down significantly from all-time high so it has room from for for major upside.” Real-world assets (RWA) constitute 10% of Deutscher’s portfolio, a sector he believes is poised for significant adoption. His selections, CPOOL and CHEX, are chosen for their solid protocol development, strategic partnerships, and upcoming exchange listings, which are expected to enhance their market legitimacy and growth potential. Additionally, Pendle is mentioned as an honorable mention, recognized for its strong narrative, partnerships, and organic token distribution, making it a standout performer in the RWA space. The gaming sector, though traditionally undervalued, receives a 10% allocation in Deutscher’s portfolio. He highlighted Beam and Super as his top picks, with Beam serving as an infrastructure play backed by substantial treasury reserves and strategic partnerships, and Super functioning as a community-driven gaming meme coin with strong utility and a cult-like following. In the DeFi sector, Deutscher allocates 5% of his portfolio to two primary assets: AAVE and Rune. AAVE is identified as the strongest DeFi blue-chip, benefiting from robust revenue streams and increasing on-chain yields, making it a reliable cornerstone for the portfolio. Rune is viewed by Deutscher as a leveraged bet on the market’s bullish trajectory, expected to perform exceptionally well during market upswings due to its reflexive nature and the functionality of its Omnipool. At press time, WIF traded at $2.43. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
