Analyst: Altcoins May Have Entered Early Accumulation Phase, Bullish on SOL, ASTER, and HYPE
Odaily News Analyst Killa stated on platform X that, based on historical performance, when BTC begins to form a bottom and slowly trends upward, it often represents a favorable accumulation phase for altcoins. During the previous cycle, as BTC rose from $16,000 to $74,000, a large number of altcoins recorded gains of 300%–500%. However, as BTC continued to strengthen thereafter and its market dominance increased, many altcoins began to face downward pressure.Killa believes that if BTC has already formed its bottom this cycle, some altcoins may have also established cyclical lows, prompting a recent resumption of selective altcoin positioning. His SOL position, bought at $76, is currently up approximately 50%. The ASTER long position shared recently has a target of at least 50% to 100% upside. Additionally, the HYPE spot or long position established earlier at $51.55 has since risen roughly 70%.
