ETH, XRP, SOL, ADA, DOGE, SHIB Season Imminent as Altcoin, USDT Dominance Set to Hit Tightest Range ⋆ ZyCrypto

ETH, XRP, SOL, BNB, SHIB, and DOGE traders may be approaching a critical market inflection, as data shows the gap between altcoin performance and USDT dominance narrowing to its tightest level in months.

Analyst Altcoin Vector noted that this pattern is historically followed by an “Altseason.” In an X post, the analyst noted that the inverse correlation between altcoins (excluding top 10 market caps) and USDT dominance has nearly reached the compression zone that preceded the major altcoin rally in late 2024.

The analyst also outlined key signals to watch before confirmation: a decline in USDT.D, which signals risk appetite, and a rebound in the Alts/BTC ratio, marking the start of liquidity rotation. “Until then,” he wrote, “Alts stay in a tight dance with liquidity, consolidating under Bitcoins dominance, waiting for ignition.”

The analyst further compared the present structure to the October–December 2024 cycle, when Bitcoin dominance peaked before capital rotated into Ethereum and large-cap altcoins, triggering a broad rally across sectors. That cycle, he said, typically unfolds in four stages, from Bitcoin-led impulses and altcoin capitulation to broad alt rallies and late-stage profit-taking.

Meanwhile, market sentiment around individual altcoins is turning increasingly optimistic. Crypto trader Daan Crypto highlighted Dogecoin‘s gradual uptrend since June, noting the memecoin’s price is “getting pretty compressed.” He expects an explosive rally if DOGE continues to hold above its daily 200-day moving averages.

Some analysts are also looking to Ethereum. Ash Crypto stated Ether is undergoing a typical bull market correction, not a reversal, citing heavy institutional accumulation.
