Why Bitcoin Users Are Moving to Altcoins? As Ethereum Price Jumps 11%

Although the Bitcoin price rally has paused above $75,000 a day after Donald Trump’s victory, altcoins have continued their strong show with the Ethereum price taking the lead with 11% gains all the way to $2,850 levels. Investors have a lot of questions as to does this mark the beginning of the much-awaited altseason moving ahead.

Altcoins Steal the Limelight from Bitcoin?

On the day of Donald Trump’s victory on November 6, the Bitcoin price touched its all-time high levels surging all the way to $75,000. While the bulls try to defend these levels, altcoins seem to grabbing the investors’ focus.

The Ethereum price has managed to pull off 12% gains moving all the way to the $2,850 level and eying further rally to its all-time high levels. This comes despite strong selling pressure from Ethereum whales. Popular crypto analyst IncomeSharks noted that the ETH price has given a crucial breakout from the downward trendline slope, which opens the gates for a 75% rally from here to new all-time highs.

Furthermore, after hitting the lower lows over the past few months, the ETH/BTC trading pair has notched up a bit. “With ETH/BTC at 0.035 it definitely makes sense to start hedging,” added Cowen. However, he added that for the bottom formation confirmation, the ETH/BTC pair must end above the 50 DMA.

Apart from Ethereum price surge, other altcoins like Solana made strong gains on Donald Trump’s victory. The Solana price has surged to $188 once again as talks about the approval of spot Solana ETF in the Trump presidency gain traction. As a result, analysts predict an SOL surge to $300 levels from here.

Will BTC Lose the Grip Over the Market?

Some market analysts state that it is still early to call the altseason and expect Bitcoin dominance to grow even further. Also, this could just be the beginning of the next major Bitcoin bull run.

Veteran trader Peter Brandt shared an optimistic outlook for Bitcoin, suggesting it has entered a “sweet spot” in the current bull market halving cycle. According to Brandt, Bitcoin is on track to peak between $130,000 and $150,000 by August or September of next year, marking a potential new high for the cryptocurrency.

Echoing similar thoughts, crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted that the next BTC top usually happens after 8 to 12 months following a monthly close above the previous all-time highs. Thus, he expects the next BTC top to happen anywhere between July to November 2025.

According to blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant, Bitcoin’s recent all-time high doesn’t signal an overvaluation relative to its cost basis. The firm’s data on the MVRV ratio suggests that BTC remains well below peak levels. Additionally, Bitcoin’s price is close to traders’ average purchase cost, indicating that the market is not currently overheated. These insights point to the potential for continued growth in Bitcoin’s value.
