- So, apparently, some analysts are saying the altcoin sector is in a ‘buy’ zone for mid-term investors. Who knew? 🙄
 - But wait! BTC and USDT dominance are throwing shade on this bullish outlook. Classic! 😏
 
Picture this: the altcoin sector has been on a dramatic sell-off since early 2025, with top cryptos like Solana [SOL] and Ethereum [ETH] losing a staggering 65% of their values. But hold onto your hats, because a key indicator just flashed a ‘BUY’ signal! 🎉
Enter CryptoQuant analyst DarkFost, who suggests it might be the perfect moment to dip your toes into altcoin positions with a “mid-term” outlook. He’s all about that aggregate altcoin trading volume positioning. Sounds fancy, right? 🤓
“We’ve entered a buying zone, which is defined by the 30-day moving average falling below the annual average… last time we reached these levels was in September 2023, right after the bear market ended.”

In layman’s terms, the indicator’s low readings are like a neon sign saying, “Hey, remember when the altcoin sector exploded in late 2023? Yeah, that could happen again!” 💥
But wait, there’s more! Do other altcoin momentum signals agree with this optimistic outlook? Let’s investigate! 🔍
Assessing Bitcoin and USDT’s Dominance
Some key indicators for altcoin momentum are BTC (BTC.D) and Tether USDT dominance (USDT.D). Think of them as the cool kids in the crypto playground. 😎
Last November, during the altcoin explosion, USDT.D took a nosedive, meaning speculators were swapping stablecoins for their favorite altcoin gems. Meanwhile, BTC.D was like, “I’m outta here!” and fell. Classic capital rotation! 💸

Fast forward to 2025, and BTC.D is strutting its stuff at 63.5%, suggesting that capital is cozying up in BTC instead of altcoins. Meanwhile, USDT.D has crept up from 4% to 5.6%, as cautious traders flee to stablecoins like it’s a zombie apocalypse. 🧟♂️
From the latest readings, it seems speculators are playing hard to get with the altcoin sector. But who knows? A favorable macro environment could change the game! 🎲
Now, the RSI heatmap and funding rates are revealing that the altcoin sector is undervalued and has less froth (less leverage). DarkFost might just be onto something! 🤔

Back in late 2024, funding rates hit a whopping 50-80% (orange), signaling strong bullish sentiment and over-leverage. This often leads to sharp pullbacks, like a bad breakup. But right now, funding rates are below 10% across several altcoins, hinting at a stable market that could rally higher under positive catalysts. Fingers crossed! 🤞
And let’s not forget, some select outliers have been stealing the spotlight, outperforming BTC over the past week and 30 days of trading. Onyxcoin [XCN] and Fartcoin (yes, you read that right) saw over 100% gains in the past week. Others, like Curve DAO [CRV], have surged by nearly 50% over the past month. Who knew crypto could be so dramatic? 🎭
