No Altseason Yet: CZ Weighs In On Altcoins Performance Amid Crypto Market Retrace

Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao has suggested that the highly anticipated Altseason isnt here yet as most altcoins continue bleeding, while some market watchers consider the worst might be over soon. Related Reading: All Options On The Table: Bitcoin Must Hold This Level Ahead Of Trumps Crypto Summit CZ Says Theres No Altseason Yet On Friday, Changpeng Zhao, also known as CZ, responded to an X user asking when the Altseason will happen. The Binance founder pointed out the price tracking and market data website CoinMarketCap (CMC), which recently added an Altcoin Season Index. CZ highlighted that of the top 100 altcoins, very few have outperformed Bitcoin (BTC) in the past three months, suggesting that the Altseason wont happen yet. As the website states, the CMC Altcoin Season Index page provides real-time insights into whether the cryptocurrency market is currently in Altcoin Season, based on the performance of the top 100 altcoins against the flagship crypto over the past 90 days. Under this metric, an Altseason is in if 75% of the top 100 altcoins outperform BTC during the established period. To CZ, This is a tough ranking system, as he considers that 50 would be a good score for Altcoins. The CMC index page shows a score of 14/100, with only 14 altcoins outperforming BTC since early December. Some of the tokens in this list include Monero (XRM), Hyperliquid (HYPE), Pi (PI), Mantra (OM), Berachain (BERA), and the official Trump memecoin (TRUMP). Leading cryptocurrencies of 2024, like SUI and Solana (SOL), show 37% to 41% price decreases in the past 90 days. Meanwhile, memecoin sensations like dogwifhat (WIF), PEPE, FLOKI, and BONK have bled between 70% and 80% during this period. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe also noted that altcoins have had an overall negative performance on higher timeframes despite some recent price rallies. Massive green day on some Altcoins, they are up 2%! Then, you zoom out, and you zoom out, and you zoom out, he asserted. Altcoins Bottom Could Be Near Altcoin Sherpa stated that altcoins were in about the same or worse positions during the Summer 2024 retrace, pointing out that things were also pretty bleak overall and then we saw some strong bounces in August. However, he noted that, unlike last year, the market doesnt have a Trump Pump coming. Recently, some of the top cryptocurrencies saw a significant price increase after US President Donald Trump announced a strategic reserve that would include SOL, XRP, Cardano (ADA), Ethereum (ETH), and BTC. Nonetheless, after the March 6 executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Asset Stockpile, the White House AI and Crypto Czar, David Sacks, clarified that the previously named altcoins were used as references for the most valuable tokens in the market. Sherpa considers that the markets bottom is close, but we still also probably have the chop period to get through before any substantial recovery. On the contrary, some industry figures have also commented on altcoins overall performance this cycle, suggesting that the Altseason already started but will be different from previous cycles. Related Reading: Stellar (XLM) Price Setting Up For Rally To $1.60 Here Are The Levels To Watch Recently, CryptoQuants founder and CEO, Ki Young Ju, stated that the Altseason had begun. He affirmed there will not be a direct Bitcoin-to-altcoins rotation this cycle, as BTC dominance isnt the key metric that defines it. To the CEO, trading volume is the metric that defines it this time. Ju also pointed out that this will be a very selective and challenging altseason, with only a few altcoins with strong narratives expected to thrive.

Can Cardano Reclaim $1? Analyst Says ADA Price Must Hold This Crucial Level

Cardano (ADA)s price continues to move sideways, holding its range for the past 10 days, while online sentiment grows. Some analysts suggest that a retest of the local resistance could be near if the cryptocurrency holds its crucial support zone. Related Reading: Crypto Sleuth Claims Mysterious $20M Hyperliquid Whale Is Tied To Illicit Activity Cardano Holds Key Range Cardano has retraced 40% from its two-month high of $1.17, dropping to the $0.7 range over the past few weeks. ADA climbed 80% on March 2 after US President Donald Trump announced a Crypto Strategic Reserve, including the cryptocurrency, which sent the token to monthly highs. After its massive pump, the altcoin retraced to $0.9, holding this zone through the following days. However, the March 6 executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Asset Stockpile sent ADA below the crucial level. At the time, the White Houses Crypto Czar, David Sacks, clarified that the ADA and the other altcoins named were just used as a reference for the top cryptocurrencies in the market. Since then, Cardano has moved sideways, hovering between $0.68-$0.75. ADA dropped to $0.64 during the March 11 market crash before bouncing. Despite the ongoing price action, online sentiment has been positive towards ADA this week. On Tuesday, on-chain analytics firm Santiment pointed out that Cardano saw a highly positive sentiment on social media. The bullish sentiment was fueled by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) classification of ADAs use case as smart contracts for government services. The news pushed bullishness to its highest rate in over 4 months, the firm noted. Moreover, large-scale investors have also shown positive sentiment toward Cardano, with Whales purchasing around 190 million ADA tokens in the past 48 hours. ADA Breakout Or Breakdown Next? ADA has been in a downtrend since December 2024, when it hit its 3-year high of $1.32. The February market retraces sent the cryptocurrencys price below several crucial support zones, with the token hovering between the $0.60-$0.80 price range. Analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems noted ADA has a weird-looking chart, mainly due to the announcement of the strategic reserve. As a result, Cardanos most crucial support level is at $0.66, as it could send it to monthly lows. According to the analyst, That level should hold; otherwise, all this recent price action will result in a distribution phase. Previously, Sjuul affirmed Cardanos chart displayed a Power of 3 in the making, signaling that the cryptocurrency was entering the third phase. This pattern divides the price cycle into three phases: accumulation, manipulation, and distribution. In the last phase, a strong price breakout occurs, with momentum building in the direction opposite to the manipulation. Based on this, if ADA lost the $0.66 mark, the token could see a significant price correction. Meanwhile, a pseudonym trader pointed out that the altcoin shows a bullish reversal after breaking out of a falling wedge pattern. Per the post, Cardano could enter a strong uptrend if it maintains its momentum. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Get Interesting As Price Retests $85,000 Here Are The Levels To Watch Nonetheless, ADA must hold the current support levels and break above the local resistance for confirmation of further bullish continuation to the $1.22 target. Analyst Ali Martinez noted that ADA trades within a right-angled descending wedge, with the upper trendline at $1.15. He suggested that a daily close above $1.15 would push ADAs price to the $2 mark, not seen since 2021. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Crypto Sleuth Claims Mysterious $20M Hyperliquid Whale Is Tied To Illicit Activity

Crypto detective ZachXBT alleged that the mysterious Hyperliquid whale thats been making headlines across the crypto community is suspected to be a convicted criminal from the UK. The trader has made around $20 million in profit from leveraged trading, raising questions about their identity. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Get Interesting As Price Retests $85,000 Here Are The Levels To Watch Mysterious Hyperliquid Whale Not A Crypto Insider On Thursday, ZachXBT shared an investigation revealing the Hyperliquid Whale as a British hacker previously charged with multiple crimes. The traders identity has been a hot topic among crypto investors over the past few weeks. According to the X thread, the trader was identified as William Parker, known as Alistair Packover, before he changed his name. Parker was arrested and sentenced in Finland in 2024 for stealing nearly $1 million from two online casinos in 2023. Since January 2025, the trader has made millions by opening several highly leveraged positions on Hyperliquid and GMX but gained attention this month for two specific trades. Right before US President Donald Trumps Strategic Crypto Reserve announcement on March 2, the whale opened a large Ethereum (ETH) and Bitcoin (BTC) long position on 50X leverage using address 0xe4d3. Following this trade, the crypto community speculated that the whale could be an insider, with some users alleging that the trader was linked to the Trump family due to their timing. Meanwhile, others suggested that the mysterious whale was tied to the North Korean hacking group Lazarus. The trader later opened a BTC short position on 40X leverage using address 0xf3F4, profiting $19 million from the two positions. After the whale closed its short position earlier this week, the crypto sleuth revealed that the trader was allegedly involved in illicit activity. Its funny watching CT speculate on the Hyperliquid whale when in reality its just a cybercriminal gambling with stolen funds, he initially responded to the speculation. Connecting The On-Chain Dots In the thread, ZachXBT shared four key counterparties of the 0xf3f address, including 0xe4d3, which he had identified. He also noted that the cluster was tied to Roobet, Binance, Gamdom, ChangeNOW, Shuffle, Alphapo, BC Game, and Metawin accounts. Additionally, the 0xf3f signed a message on-chain with an X account under the username @qwatio, which has seemingly been purchased recently. After the crypto detectives initial claims, the X user denied the cybercrime allegations and claimed the $20 million profits from the GMX and HL trades were clean and traceable on the blockchain. However, the on-chain investigator alleges that he would have to control the related wallets in this cluster for the $20M number to be accurate. Notably, an address in the cluster, 0x7ab, was found to have received funds from a phishing scam and an exploited casino game on Solana. Related Reading: SUI Ready For 15% Move Amid Key Level Retest Breakout Or Breakdown Ahead? Then, ZachXBT tracked down a recent payment from 0xe4d3 and obtained a UK phone number that seemingly connects the trader and the name William Parker. I tracked down a recent payment from 0xe4d3 to an unnamed person who confirmed they had been paid by the HL trader. They provided a UK phone number used to communicate with them. Public record reveals the name William Parker is likely tied to this number. The crypto sleuth concluded that Parker, who was also convicted three times in the early 2010s for crimes related to fraud, hacking, and gambling, has now gambled 6 figs into $20M using high leverage on-chain for the past two months, and will likely continue to do so.

Can The Donald Trump Win Drive Bitcoin Price To $170,000 This Cycle?

The victory of Donald Trump in the US presidential election has been confirmed, leaving cryptocurrency investors speculating about the impact on Bitcoins price trajectory in the next four years. Interestingly, the market has already been given a taste of the possible effects. Related Reading: SEC Shake-Up: Robinhood Legal Boss On Shortlist For Top SpotReport In fact, the mere news of Trumps win has pushed the Bitcoin price into uncharted territory. Since the announcement, Bitcoin has surged, reaching a recent peak of $77,239. According to a crypto analyst, the Bitcoin price has always rallied after US elections, but the price surge tends to be even more pronounced after a Trump win. Can The Trump Win Continue To Push Bitcoin Price Upwards? Crypto analyst Tony “The Bull” Severino, CMT, recently took to social media platform X to highlight an intriguing historical pattern between Donald Trumps presidential victories and Bitcoins price movements. According to Severino, while Bitcoin has consistently rallied following US elections, the price surge was especially pronounced when Trump was first elected in 2016. Severino backed up his analysis with data from Bitcoins November 2016 performance on the two-month candlestick chart. At that time, Bitcoin was trading at approximately $725. After that election, the Bitcoin price went on to create seven consecutive bullish candlesticks following Trumps win, setting off a remarkable rally that continued into 2017 and laid the foundation for Bitcoins ascent to its then-record highs.  Now, with Bitcoin currently trading around $76,000 in the wake of Trumps latest victory, Severino speculates whether the cryptocurrency could replicate this historical pattern. Interestingly, the analyst believes a repeat of this run could happen with Trumps win, and Bitcoin could now make its move toward $100,000 per coin. Will Bitcoin Soar To $170,000 This Cycle? Still in the spirit of a bullish crypto market after Trump’s win, Tony Severino mentioned the possibility of the Bitcoin price soaring to $170,000 in the coming months. In another technical analysis, Tony highlighted the Bitcoin price action from October 2023 using Elliott Waves.  According to this outlook, Bitcoin is about to start a fifth impulse wave, which is known to be the third and last bullish wave. With this in mind, the analyst pointed to Bitcoin pushing to reach $170,000 in 2025. “Are you prepared?” he asked.  At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $76,450, having established a new all-time high of $77,239 in the past 12 hours. The streak of all-time highs seems like it isnt stopping anytime soon, as the market continues to reel in bullish momentum.
