Recent developments in the derivatives market now threaten the long-term bullish potential of the altcoin market based on historical data. Despite recent gains and market indicators that signal the altseason may soon begin, investors could be looking at a rather short-lived euphoria. Over the last day, the crypto market has witnessed a strong bullish momentum with the total market cap reclaiming the $4 trillion mark. Amidst these high levels of positivity, Bitcoin has gained 1.50%. However, other cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum (5.41%), XRP (2.99%), and Solana (5.62%) have produced larger gains, creating a miniature semblance of an altseason. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst: Altcoin Charts Flash Rare 2021-Style Breakout Setup Altcoins Open Interest Surge Points To Incoming Market Peak – Analyst Notably, these altcoins’ outperformances have drawn significant interest from derivative traders, leading to a corresponding rise in open interest — the total number of outstanding derivative contracts, e.g, futures or options, that have not yet been settled, i.e., closed, exercised, or expired. In particular, renowned crypto analyst Ted Pillows states that general altcoin open interest (excluding Ethereum) is about to surpass Bitcoin open interest for the first time in nine months. While this development suggests an emerging altseason as capital and traders’ attention shift to the altcoin market, Pillows has highlighted a potential cause for concern. The crypto market expert shares that historical data from Coinalyze shows that the last two times altcoin open interest surged above that of Bitcoin were in March 2024 and December 2024. After each event, many altcoins popularly formed a local market peak in the following two weeks. Therefore, while the present market fundamentals indicate traders are on the brink of an altseason, Pillows’ revelation indicates it would be a brief parabolic market. However, the peculiarity of the present market cycle, which is largely driven by institutional demand, suggests that any correction could be shallower than in past cycles, with capital rotating more sustainably between Bitcoin and major altcoins. Notably, several altcoin spot ETFs are also expected to be approved for trading in October, which could provide a structural inflow of liquidity, extend the rally beyond a short-lived spike.

In other news, Dutch crypto analyst Michaël Van De Poppe has admonished investors to prepare for the biggest altcoin run ever. Interestingly, Van de Poppe references an ongoing consolidation in the Gold market, which is expected to drive down interest rates. In typical fashion, lower interest rates would allow investors to divert capital to high-risk assets such as cryptocurrencies, which Van De Poppe explains would contribute to fuelling a mega altcoin rally. At press time, the total altcoin market is valued at $1.71 trillion, representing around 42.25% of the total crypto market cap. Featured image from InvestX, chart from Tradingview

Solana (SOL) could be near the long-awaited price discovery phase after climbing to a seven-month high. However, an analyst suggested investors remain cautious, as the market rally is “closer to the end than the beginning.” Related Reading: Avalanche (AVAX) Hits 7-Month High After Key Resistance Breakout – Analysts Eyes $40 Next Solana Eyes Last Major Resistance On Friday, Solana reached a seven-month high of $241.84 after breaking out of its consolidation range earlier in the week. The cryptocurrency had been trading within the $120-$220 price range since the start of February, failing to reclaim the range’s high during the recent short-term recoveries. The ongoing rally has sent the cryptocurrency past multiple crucial barriers, “getting close to the final resistance,” analyst Crypto Jelle stated. He highlighted that SOL has been “quietly pushing higher, without anyone paying attention,” climbing 20% since Sunday. Now that the altcoin is attempting to reclaim the $240 area as support, the analyst pointed out that Solana has “one last hurdle to overcome” before price discovery. According to the post, if SOL reclaims the $250 level, “the sky is the limit,” as this area has been a crucial macro resistance level over the past two years. To the analyst, turning this level into support could set the base for a rally to $600. Similarly, analyst Ali Martinez suggested that SOL’s main target sits at around the $1,314.41 level after the altcoin broke out of a massive three-year cup and handle pattern. Nonetheless, Altcoin Sherpa issued a warning to investors on X, stating that “Now is NOT the time to ape in gigantic.” He asserted that despite thinking that Solana, Ethereum (ETH), and BNB “generally go higher from here, (…) the bulk of the move is done for these.” The analyst explained that he will remain bullish “until shown otherwise,” and expects a great performance in the coming months, but noted that the bull run is “closer to the end than the beginning.” “We are lucky that the marginal buyers are Tradfi with these DATs but with Saylor not buying as much, hard to tell where the next set of flows come from,” he stated. ‘SOL Season’ Momentum Grows Bitwise’s CIO Matt Hougan recently forecasted a bullish Q4 rally for Solana, affirming that the cryptocurrency has “all the ingredients (…) for an epic end-of-year run.” He suggested that it could start a “Solana Season” fueled by exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and strong corporate treasury purchases. Notably, multiple spot Solana ETFs are awaiting the approval of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) after the regulatory agency delayed the decision deadline last month. As a result, issuers and investors are expecting a positive outcome around the first half of October. Additionally, the recently launched Solana Treasury company, Forward Industries Inc., announced it had successfully closed its private investment in public equity (PIPE) financing on September 11, securing gross proceeds of approximately $1.65 billion for the Company. As reported by NewsBTC, Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital announced their plan to establish the SOL treasury company to purchase the cryptocurrency, stake it, and generate excess returns. Related Reading: Bitcoin Breakdown Averted? Analyst Says This Level Will Determine BTC’s Fate “Forward Industries intends to use the net proceeds from the offering primarily to purchase SOL, the native digital asset of the Solana blockchain,” the company reaffirmed in its Thursday statement.

Bitcoin (BTC) has extended, surging to a three-week high of $115,500, fueled by softer U.S. inflation data and steady inflows into Bitcoin ETFs. The rally coincided with growing investor optimism that the Federal Reserve may deliver a 25 basis-point rate cut next week, further boosting risk appetite. Related Reading: Dogecoin RSI Signal Returns—Last Time It Sparked A 1,700% Rally According to CoinMarketCap data, Ethereum (ETH) also gained ground, trading above $4,550, while altcoins like Solana (SOL) and Dogecoin (DOGE) recorded sharp increases. Solana climbed over 7% to $239, while Dogecoin rose 5% to $0.26, signaling broad-based strength across the crypto market. BTC's price trends to the upside on the daily chart. Source: BTCUSD on Tradingview Market analysts credited the upward move to different macroeconomic stability and institutional inflows. Bitcoin ETFs registered more than $928 million in inflows, reinforcing demand from both retail and professional investors. Resistance Near $116K Raises Concerns Despite the bullish wave, Bitcoin faced resistance above $116,000, where sellers limited further gains. Analysts noted that rejection at this level emphasizes ongoing market caution. It is believed that the rally indicates renewed sentiment, but the rejection above $116,000 shows that sellers continue to be active. Derivatives data echoed this caution. The weekly options expiry revealed a put/call ratio of 1.3, signaling that bearish bets slightly outweigh bullish positions. This trend suggests traders expect Bitcoin to remain range-bound, with probable moves limited between $111,000 and $116,000. Meanwhile, CryptoQuant’s Bull Score Index showed that most market indicators, including the MVRV-Z score and stablecoin liquidity, have turned bearish. Analysts warn that a sudden shift in sentiment could trigger profit-taking and liquidations. What’s Next for Bitcoin (BTC)? If Bitcoin achieves a sustained breakout above $116,000, analysts believe the next target could be $118,000, with strong support around $113,700. However, volatility remains a risk as traders wait for the Fed’s upcoming interest rate decision. Adding to the positive outlook, Sean Ono Lennon, son of music legend John Lennon, recently praised Bitcoin as a hedge against “runaway money printing,” emphasizing its appeal as a scarce, decentralized asset during times of economic uncertainty.

A cryptocurrency analyst has pointed out how Solana may be moving toward a sky-high main target based on a cup-and-handle breakout. Solana Is Breaking Out Of A Cup And Handle In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has shared a pattern that the 1-week price of SOL has appeared to have been following during the last few years. The pattern in question is a “cup and handle” from technical analysis (TA). It’s made up of two parts: a U-shaped trendline forming the “cup” and a downward parallel channel representing the “handle.” As the asset moves through the pattern, it first goes through a decline to a low, then observes a rebound back to about the same height as before the drawdown. Finally, it once again witnesses a bearish trajectory, this time one consistent with a descending channel. When the price is inside the channel, the usual rules of the formation apply: the upper line acts as a resistance barrier, while the lower one provides support. A break out of the levels can imply a continuation of trend in that direction. Related Reading: Litecoin Surges As Whales Scoop Up 181,000 LTC A cup and handle is generally assumed to be a bullish continuation pattern, meaning that breakouts can be considered more probable to occur in the up direction. The same seems to have held true for Solana as well, as its 1-week price has just seen a surge beyond the resistance line of its multi-year cup and handle pattern. As displayed in the above graph, the weekly Solana price went down and up along a cup between 2021 and 2024, but this year, it entered into the handle or downward consolidation phase. After some period of stay inside the zone, the coin finally found a break away from it in July. This escape from the descending channel occurred with an upward surge, a potential sign that sustained bullish momentum may be coming for SOL, if the pattern is anything to go by. As for what could be a potential target for the cryptocurrency’s price, the analyst has suggested a rather bold one: $1,314.41. The target corresponds to a line from Fibonacci Extension levels. Fibonacci Extension levels are drawn on an asset’s price chart starting from a bottom point. Martinez has taken SOL’s cup low as the zero level. Each successive level corresponds to some percentage extension from this bottom, equal to a ratio from the popular Fibonacci series. Related Reading: Dogecoin To $0.50? This Channel Break Could Be The Catalyst The 1.414 Fibonacci Extension level lies at $1,314.41 for Solana right now. It now remains to be seen whether the coin will eventually surge to this mark, or if the breakout will fizzle out. SOL Price Solana has performed better than most top coins over the past week as its price has surged by more than 17%, reaching the $238 mark. Featured image from Dall-E, charts from TradingView.com

Bitcoin (BTC) has surged from around $108,000 on September 1 to above $115,000 at the time of writing – recording a gain of roughly 4% over the past two weeks. However, fresh on-chain data suggests that Bitcoin may be on the cusp of a fresh rally that could propel it to new all-time highs (ATH). Bitcoin Rises Above Mid-Term Holders’ Realized Price According to a CryptoQuant Quicktake post by contributor ShayanMarkets, Bitcoin’s recent rebound from $107,000 to just above $114,000 has lifted the digital asset over the Realized Price of mid-term (3-6 months) holders. Related Reading: Bitcoin Miners Shift Strategy: Accumulation Over Selling Signals Stronger Bull Cycle For the uninitiated, the mid-term holders’ Realized Price is the average acquisition cost of Bitcoin held by wallets that last moved their coins within the past 3–6 months. It serves as a key pivot level, often acting as support or resistance that reflects sentiment and potential sell pressure from this cohort. Per analysis by ShayanMarkets, the mid-term holders’ Realized Price currently stands at around $114,000. Now that BTC has surged above this level, the likelihood of an immediate sell-off has reduced significantly. The analyst added: A firm breakout and hold above this level would confirm renewed confidence from mid-term holders, potentially serving as the launchpad for another bullish leg that could propel Bitcoin to new all-time highs. Conversely, failure to hold above $114K risks shifting sentiment back toward caution and opens the path to deeper corrective moves. A Bump On The Road For BTC Fellow CryptoQuant contributor Gaah brought attention to short-term holders’ (STH) Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR), normalized with a 30-day moving average. The contributor noted that after four months of consistently operating above the break-even line, the indicator is now showing that STH are selling their holdings at a loss. Related Reading: Bitcoin Holds $112,000 Support As Binance Whale Activity Cools Off – What’s Ahead? The STH selling their BTC at a loss indicates a “momentary loss of confidence” on the part of speculators, who are typically more sensitive to changes in price. Although BTC has jumped from $60,000 to as high as $125,000 over the past year, the SOPR STH has recorded descending peaks. In past cycles, a sharp surge in price was usually accompanied by peaks in the Extreme Greed region, suggesting strong retail participation. However, the current market cycle did not see any such dynamic at play, hinting that the rise in price was likely sustained by institutional investors. Gaah added that historically, market tops have only been confirmed when SOPR STH levels reached levels of extreme greed, a development that has not yet occurred in the current rally. As a result, the long-term trend remains firm, and the current realization of losses may just be a temporary healthy pullback. That said, some analysts caution that Bitcoin may already be very close to hitting its peak for this market cycle. Others predict that BTC may slump in September, before it resumes its bullish trajectory in Q4 2025. Still, some analysts forecast Bitcoin reaching as high as $150,000 by Christmas. At press time, BTC trades at $115,050, up 0.7% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from CryptoQuant and TradingView.com

Chainlink (LINK), one of the crypto market’s leading providers of decentralized oracle solutions, has announced a partnership with the prediction market platform Polymarket. Polymarket Integrates Chainlink On Polygon According to Friday’s announcement, the new integration is now live on the Polygon (POL) mainnet, enabling Polymarket to establish secure and real-time prediction markets centered around asset pricing, including numerous active cryptocurrency trading pairs. This collaboration also explores new methodologies to address more subjective questions. By doing so, Polymarket seeks to reduce its dependence on social voting mechanisms, thereby mitigating resolution risks in its markets. Related Reading: Bitcoin Crawls Up On Weak Supply: 30D Momentum Reveals It Lacks Real Demand The integration combines Chainlink Data Streams, which deliver low-latency, timestamped, and verifiable oracle reports, with Chainlink Automation, ensuring timely and automated on-chain market settlements. This infrastructure reportedly allows for swift resolution of any asset pricing predictions, such as Bitcoin (BTC) price forecasts, based on predetermined parameters. Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink, commented on the partnership, stating that Polymarket’s decision to integrate Chainlink’s oracle infrastructure is a “pivotal milestone” that transforms the creation and settlement of prediction markets. He emphasized that when outcomes are determined by high-quality data and tamper-proof computation, prediction markets evolve into reliable signals that can be trusted globally. This partnership is viewed as a significant advancement toward a future grounded in cryptographic truth. $100 Billion In DeFi Value Chainlink has established itself as a leading data infrastructure provider, securing nearly $100 billion in total value across various decentralized finance (DeFi) applications and facilitating transactions worth tens of trillions. The protocol’s reliability stems from its decentralized network of independent node operators, which ensures that applications function seamlessly without single points of failure. Polymarket, on the other hand, launched in 2020, has rapidly grown into a source for real-time information. Its recent acquisition of QCEX, a CFTC-licensed exchange and clearinghouse for $112 million, highlights its goal to re-entering the US market. Additionally, Polymarket has partnered with X (formerly Twitter) to offer integrated products that provide users with data-driven insights and personalized market recommendations. Related Reading: XRP Price Gets Tighter: Here’s The Level Keeping It From Price Discovery Looking ahead, market analysts are predicting that Chainlink’s growing adoption could lead to significant milestones in the coming years. One expert speculated that by 2030, Chainlink could surpass XRP in market significance. In a social media post, crypto expert Fishy Catfish outlined various predictions, suggesting that Chainlink will become the dominant platform for building financial workflows on-chain and that the future will be characterized by asset-centric and application-centric ecosystems rather than chain-centric ones. When writing, Chainlink’s native token, LINK, surged by 5%, reaching $24.70. This price increase has caused the cryptocurrency to outperform its peers, such as Bitcoin, which has seen gains of 87% compared to LINK’s 133% year-to-date uptrend.

Galaxy Digital’s Alex Thorn says the market is "underpricing" the odds of a US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve forming this year, though others are skeptical.
Bitcoin’s current rebound off the $107,200 low has sparked renewed debate over whether the market has already set its local bottom and is positioned to rally higher.. Independent analyst Astronomer (@astronomer_zero) argues that the probability is “90%+” that the low has been planted, citing both price structure and his recurring “FOMC reversal confluence” framework as confirmation. Analyst Claims 90% Chance The Bitcoin Bottom Is In Astronomer, who publicly documented his short-term bearish call from $123,000 down to the $110,000–$111,000 zone, revealed that he flipped long as the target was reached in late August. “Alright, as if the confluences of my confidence in the bottom being in the $110k area at the end of August weren’t strong enough … there now is another confluence lining up,” he wrote. According to him, the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting cycle has historically functioned as a turning point for Bitcoin trends. Related Reading: Countdown To Fed: Rate Decision Could Trigger Bitcoin Breakout He explained: “The FOMC meeting data reverses the ongoing trend at minimum 0 bars (on the date), or 6 bars at most before the date, and it has done that correctly 90%+ of the times. The few times it hasn’t, was because our quarterly long took over (which has more power).” In practice, Astronomer argues, markets front-run the event, as insiders and well-capitalized players set the post-FOMC direction before retail sentiment digests the outcome. With the next FOMC scheduled for September 18, he contends the downtrend from $123,000 to $110,000 already exhausted itself ahead of schedule. “Now with FOMC coming up … the low is likely already planted, and the trend reversed to up again,” he said. The analyst contrasted his methodology with the broader crypto commentary ecosystem, where many influencers continue to forecast further downside and a “red September.” He called such views “utter nonsense” rooted in surface-level seasonality. “Every time it does work, it plants its bottom before the actual meeting to front run the anticipation … insiders already have set the post FOMC price direction, regardless of the outcome,” he wrote, stressing that relying on generic “be careful” warnings ahead of central bank events misses the structural shift. Related Reading: This Bitcoin Cycle Changes Everything, Real Vision Analyst Explains Why After his long entry at $110,000, Bitcoin has since climbed above $115,000, prompting Astronomer to declare September’s bearish thesis already invalid. “ September will close green. Yup, Septembears officially 6% in the wrong now. As September opened at 108,299, and price is now at 115,000. That puts September in the upper historical quartile of how green it is at the moment,” he noted. He further pointed to the last two years as evidence that September’s reputation as a seasonally weak month for Bitcoin has lost statistical edge. “A certain month indeed doesn’t have to be green. ‘Seasonality’ is just a cookie cutter version of properly using cycles. Look at last two years, September has also been green and mean to the bears,” he wrote. For Astronomer, the conclusion is clear: “When many confluences point in the same direction, it usually means you have solved the rubik’s cube correctly and so can confidently believe.” Still, he tempered the conviction with risk management discipline, stating: “Of course, I could always be wrong, although it has been a long time we lost a trade, never go all in. Take a decent size risk and sleep sound.” With Bitcoin holding above $115,000 and the FOMC meeting days away, the market’s near-term verdict on whether a sustainable bottom has formed may arrive sooner rather than later.

Dogecoin (DOGE) has staged a strong breakout after forming a double bottom near key support, surging past $0.26 and leaving earlier rejection zones behind. With the Bollinger Band width now hitting a historically bullish level, DOGE could be setting the stage for a major surge, targeting a price range between $0.41 and $0.97. Dogecoin Breaks Out After Double Bottom Formation In a recent post on X, BitGuru shared an analysis highlighting that DOGE has made a significant bullish move, breaking out from a classic double bottom chart pattern. This pattern formed near a key support level, signaling a potential reversal from a downtrend to an uptrend. Related Reading: Dogecoin (DOGE) Eyes $0.30 as Channel Breakout Fuels Bullish Speculation By surging past the $0.26 mark, DOGE has confirmed this breakout and is now in a strong position for further gains. This decisive move, which is a critical development, puts previous resistance zones firmly in the rearview mirror. The market now has a clear signal of continued bullish strength. Presently, momentum is being driven by buyers who have stepped in with enough force to push the price higher, indicating a shift in market sentiment. This sustained interest and upward pressure suggest that DOGE could be setting up for a more significant rally as it enters a new phase of its market cycle. Bollinger Band Width Hits Key Orange Level Based on his analysis of Dogecoin’s weekly chart, X crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade has revealed a compelling pattern related to the Bollinger Band Width (BBW). He notes that in the past, when the BBW for DOGE has reached a specific “orange level,” the cryptocurrency has gone on to see significant rallies, with price surges ranging from 100% to as much as 378%. Related Reading: Dogecoin To $0.50? This Channel Break Could Be The Catalyst The analyst’s post further highlights a critical development: the BBW has now returned to this very same “orange level.” Such recurrence suggests that a similar period of high volatility and explosive price movement could be imminent for Dogecoin. Based on this historical precedent, the analyst has set new price targets for DOGE. He is now eyeing a potential price range of $0.41 to $0.97 for the token, a forecast directly tied to the historical performance observed when the BBW reaches this key level. This analysis provides a strong bullish case for Dogecoin in the coming weeks and months. Dogecoin is currently experiencing bullish action, with its price trading around $0.2602, a notable increase of 3.78% over the past 24 hours. DOGE’s market capitalization stands at $39.29 billion, while its 24-hour trading volume has reached $4.09 billion, reflecting significant market activity and investor interest.

According to filings and press briefings, sponsors said they would set a revised listing date after finishing required steps. That move changed the calendar for investors who had been planning trades around the earlier target. Price Snapshot And Market Size According to figures from Coingecko, Dogecoin traded at $0.26 per coin after the news broke.

Market Reaction And Flows Reports have disclosed that some large holders increased accumulation while retail traders chased momentum on social platforms. Options desks showed a rise in activity, and order books tightened on several major exchanges. At the same time, flows into crypto funds were being watched closely by market makers, who said early demand could determine whether the price move sticks. Volume spikes were sharp but brief in parts of the trading day. Community Response And Criticism Supporters welcomed easier, regulated access to DOGE through an ETF vehicle. Critics pushed back, warning that packaging a memecoin into a mainstream fund risks channeling more speculative cash into a product with no traditional utility. Based on market chatter, commentators raised questions about disclosure, trading rules, and whether retail investors fully understood the product’s risks. Public reaction split between excitement and caution. Related Reading: ETF Dreams For Dogecoin: Serious Possibility Or Just Hype? What To Watch Next Investors will be watching the sponsors’ new listing date, the fund’s first filings, and early inflows when the debut finally occurs. Order books, options open interest, and short interest are key early signals. If the fund draws strong inflows, Dogecoin could stay bid and push toward the $0.28–$0.30 targets some traders cite. If interest fades, gains could be tested quickly. This remains a developing story. Market participants should check live prices, official filings, and sponsor statements before trading.

Ondo Finance (ONDO) has risen as one of the top performers in the market this week, surging 20% to trade around $1.10. The rally comes as demand for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization accelerates, pushing Ondo’s TVL to record highs. Related Reading: Cardano Is Not Dead: Analyst Confirms Breakout With New ADA Price Targets The recently launched Ondo Global Markets platform has been a major growth driver, attracting over $160 million in assets within days. The service enables investors to access tokenized versions of more than 100 stocks and ETFs, including Tesla, Nvidia, and Google. By bringing Wall Street assets onto the blockchain, Ondo is positioning itself as a leader in the $26 billion RWA tokenization market. Analysts argue that this move could transform global investing, particularly for users outside the U.S., who have traditionally faced barriers to stock market participation. Ondo Finance’s Total Value Locked Hits $1.57 Billion Beyond its equities platform, Ondo Finance has seen explosive growth across its ecosystem. TVL on its DeFi protocols has surged from $563 million earlier this year to more than $1.57 billion today. This spike is primarily fueled by Ondo’s yield-bearing products, such as: Ondo US Dollar Yield (USDY): Over $500 million in assets Ondo Short-Term U.S. Treasuries Fund (OUSG): $724 million locked The firm’s lending arm, Flux, has also expanded rapidly, now managing $42 million in assets compared to just $4 million last November.
