These Altcoins Take Center Stage With Massive Gains as BTC Stalls at $95K (Market Watch)

Bitcoin experienced some enhanced volatility yesterday when it was rejected at $97,500 and pushed south hard by three grand in hours before it settled at just over $95,000.

In contrast, numerous altcoins have outperformed, charting mindblowing surges, such as ADA, AVAX, TRX, LINK, HBAR, and many others.

BTC Stalls at $95K

It was just a week ago when the primary cryptocurrency slumped hard and fell below $91,000, which became its most violent correction since the Trump-induced rally started in early November. However, the asset didn’t stay there for long and started to recover ground in the following days.

The weekly peak came on Friday as BTC neared $99,000. Nevertheless, the bears managed to defend that level and pushed bitcoin down to approximately $96,500 during the weekend. Monday morning started with a surge to $98,000 but that was short-lived as BTC plunged to $95,000 almost immediately.

Another rollercoaster followed suit with bitcoin jumping to $97,500 before it was driven south once again to $94,500. Despite its recovery attempts since then, BTC now trades just inches above $95,000.

This decline means that BTC’s market cap has remained below $1.9 trillion, but its dominance over the alts has been pushed south hard. The metric is down to just 52% after peaking at nearly 60% weeks ago, according to CoinGecko.

These Alts Do Good

The past few days belonged to XRP and yesterday was no exception as the asset skyrocketed by another 25% at one point and neared $3 for the first time in almost seven years. Although it has retraced since then to $2.6, its market cap of $150 billion still places it as the third-largest cryptocurrency by that metric.

Other massive gainers over the past 24 hours include ADA, which has soared by 17%, AVAX (11%), TRX (14%), DOT (16%), LINK (27%), SUI (15%), HBAR (42%), and quite a few others.

The total crypto market cap has gained $70 billion since yesterday as it has all gone to the alts. The metric is above $3.6 trillion once again.

ADA’s Bull Rally

ADA stood at around $0.32 on November 5, the day of the US elections, and was relatively sluggish at first, even as the rest of the market was charting impressive gains following Trump’s decisive victory.

However, its own rally began that weekend when IOG founder Charles Hoskinson said he will spend a lot of time in 2025 working alongside the Trump administration to establish a more favorable and comprehensive crypto policy in the States.

Cardano’s token exploded to over $0.6 at the time, but more promising hints coming from Hoskinson sent it further north. ADA neared $1 and after a few rejections there managed to break above that level.

Its rally was stalled for a few days but the bulls are back in charge now as they pushed ADA to just over $1.3 earlier today, which meant a 20% surge at one point. This became the asset’s highest price point since mid-January 2022.

Consequently, ADA has overtaken USDC and is now the eighth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, as the metric stands above $45 billion.

ADA to $6?

ADA’s breakout led many analysts to speculate on its future price growth. Some of the more modest predictions indicated that the asset could rise up to $1.5 next, which sounds achievable even for the short-term, given the recent price developments in the market.

Popular analyst Ali also outlined the same target following ADA’s price surge above $1.25, which invalidated a previous forecast for a 20% correction.

While $1.5 seems very plausible at the moment, others made some big claims that ADA could peak at $6 during this cycle. AllInCrypto’s analyst based this prediction on ADA’s behavior during the 2017 and 2021 bull runs. It’s worth noting that such a price tag would put Cardano’s market capitalization at over $210 billion. In the current environment, this sounds slightly exaggerated as this would make ADA the third-largest digital asset.
