The post Altcoin Price Prediction for 2024: Massive Gains Ahead, Ethereum to $7,000! appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Crypto bulls, Hold on Tight!
Michael van de Poppe, a well-known analyst, is predicting a major boost in the altcoin market, which could lead to historic gains for investors. Following a recent market correction, van de Poppe expects significant growth for altcoins and Ethereum in the second half of 2024.
This isn’t just wishful thinking. Here’s what’s behind this bold theory.
Why This Prediction Matters
The altcoin market cap has rebounded to $1 trillion, signaling a potential start to the long-awaited altcoin season in Q3 2024. The market has been waiting for this confirmation, and during this time, altcoins have shown signs of a possible price increase. Although the Ethereum ETF was expected to lead this movement, its performance has been less impressive so far.
In a recent X post, van de Poppe explained that the market cap for altcoins has finished its correction phase and is now set for growth. He believes that altcoins will continue to rise in the year’s second half, with many likely to see significant gains. He also forecasts a strong bull market, with Ethereum possibly reaching $7,000.
Ethereum’s Potential Effect
Experts think Ethereum’s price could hit new highs soon, especially after the launch of the first-ever spot ETH ETFs in the U.S. These funds are seen as “heavily undervalued.” Despite record-breaking ETF inflows of $1 billion, the market hasn’t moved much yet. Van de Poppe predicts these ETFs will have a big impact on the Ethereum ecosystem, similar to Bitcoin ETFs.
A Closer Look at Market Trends
Recent market trends and technical indicators suggest that altcoins are primed for a rally. The altcoin market cap has stabilized, providing a solid foundation for future growth. However, data from Blockchain Center shows the current threshold is below 30%, and only 11 of the top 50 altcoins have outperformed Bitcoin in the past three months. More than 75% of these altcoins need to surpass Bitcoin to officially declare an altcoin season.
Experts predict Ethereum could surge to between $4,000 and $7,000. Right now, ETH is trading at $3,275, with a 3.08% increase in the last 24 hours.
Is this finally the year for altcoins to shine? What are you keeping your eye on?
