On-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant has highlighted six indicators that could point to growing momentum in the altcoin market.

These Altcoin Metrics Are Observing Positive Developments

In a new thread on X, CryptoQuant has discussed about how the altcoins have been heating up since Bitcoin’s breakout to the new all-time high (ATH) in mid-July.

At the forefront of this alt push has been Ethereum, the cryptocurrency second only to Bitcoin in terms of market cap. Since BTC’s high, ETH has broken out above the $3,000 level and has neared $4,000. The coin is still a distance away from its ATH of $4,800, but it’s getting closer.

The hype around the cryptocurrency has been accompanied by major buys from Sharplink, the Strategy equivalent of ETH. the firm currently owns around 438,190 tokens of the asset.

Since the altcoin rally has begun, BTC has only shown sideways action. A natural consequence of this has been that the number one digital asset has lost market dominance.

As is usually the case, the bullish momentum in the market has brought in speculative interest from the investors. From the below chart, it’s apparent that the futures volume associated with Ethereum and the altcoins has seen a strong surge.

The combined futures trading volume of the altcoin sector has recently hit the $223.6 billion mark, which is the highest level in five months. While attention has poured into the alts, it has shifted away from BTC.

“Altcoins and ETH now make up 83% of total futures volume, with Bitcoin accounting for just 17%,” notes the analytics firm. Earlier in the year, BTC was sitting at a peak futures volume dominance of more than 50%. Most of the 424 futures pairs on cryptocurrency exchange Binance have seen a positive percentage change since BTC’s ATH.

The final metric shared by CryptoQuant is the Bitcoin Retail Investor Demand. It measures, as its name suggests, the amount of demand for the asset that exists among the retail cohort.

Since these holders tend to have relatively small holdings, the indicator uses the transaction volume associated with transfers valued at less than $10,000 as a proxy for the activity among them.

As displayed in the above graph, the 30-day change of the Bitcoin Retail Investor Demand has turned positive recently, which suggests small hands are showing interest in the market. The analytics firm describes the trend as a “signal we’ve seen before major rallies on both Bitcoin and Altcoins.”

ETH Price

At the time of writing, Ethereum is floating around $3,770, up around 2% over the last 24 hours.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
