The global cryptocurrency market is climbing once again, with total market capitalization rising 2.23% to $4.29 trillion. Investor sentiment has turned bullish as both Bitcoin and altcoins post steady gains after a quiet trading week.<\/p>\n

Altcoins are leading the latest rally and the Altcoin Season Index stands at 64 out of 100, reflecting stronger performance from major tokens outside Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

BNB rose 4.55% to $1,219, gaining over 20% in a week. Solana advanced 2.27% to $236, continuing its climb, while Dogecoin and Cardano each added more than 2%. XRP also saw decent growth, rising 1.12% to $3.03.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Holds Steady, Market Sentiment Neutral<\/h3>\n

Bitcoin traded at $125,490, up 1.74%, with a market cap surpassing $2.5 trillion. Despite strong momentum, analysts expect a short-term cooling period before the next leg higher. The Fear and Greed Index sits at 59, meaning neutral sentiment and room for further movement.<\/p>\n

Ethereum Could Be Next to Shine<\/h3>\n

Amid this market activity, analyst Michael van de Poppe believes the next major breakout could come from Ethereum. He noted that the sharp drop in Bitcoin dominance has fueled ETH\u2019s surge from $1,500 to $4,800, and this could be \u201cjust the start.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA small uptick in the BTC dominance chart doesn\u2019t mean altcoin momentum is over,\u201d van de Poppe said. \u201cThe downtrend in Bitcoin dominance has only begun. After Bitcoin\u2019s move, I expect a strong upwards push for Ethereum.\u201d<\/p>\n

He predicts that Ethereum could reach a new all-time high in October or November, strengthening the broader altcoin rally even further. The expert added that if Bitcoin corrects toward $121,500, it could be a healthy reset before a potential rally toward $150,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
