- Bitcoin’s recovery above US$65K signals a potential upcoming altcoin season, noted by Australian analyst Miles Deutscher.
- Deutscher attributes the recent market rally to decreased selling pressure and increasing buyer activity.
- He predicts altcoins could surpass a trillion-dollar market cap, emphasising strategic profit-taking.
With Bitcoin seemingly out of the worst for now and flying past US$65K (AU$96.5K) after the recent crash, Australian analyst Miles Deutscher says it may be time for altcoin season soon.

But first, what caused the recent market rally? According to Deutscher, it was ultimately these events that have led to the crash: Mt. Gox fears and the German Bitcoin sales. Now, as sellers run out of coins to unload onto the market, supply pressure disappears which leads to less resistance for buyers, finally leading to an increase in price.
The analyst highlights a common misconception that there isn’t enough interest in crypto based on social engagement – when there are in fact plenty of buyers (see ETFs).
We need to stop thinking about who’s going to buy and start thinking about who is actually left to sell.
Altcoins Could Break Through US$ Trillion Market Cap
According to the analyst, altcoins are showing signs of recovery similar to Bitcoin, having reclaimed their range low on the total chart. Deutscher sees “a lot of opportunity in the market” due to the current low prices of many altcoins, suggesting that some could “perform really strongly if the market catches a bit.”
He believes altcoins have a strong chance to exceed a trillion-dollar market cap in this cycle, offering substantial returns. Deutscher also emphasises the importance of taking profits as the market rises to avoid losses and highlights Ethereum as a key altcoin to watch.
Most of the money is made by buying fear and holding and just selling extreme greed eventually.
But don’t expect a peak anytime soon, according to Deutscher it may take until well into the year 2025 for a market top.
Other Altcoins to Watch Out For
So, which altcoin will moon soon? According to Deutscher not much has changed, with the same narratives remaining strong bets – tokenisation, artificial intelligence, memecoins, decentralised finance and layer-1s.
In an earlier post, Deutscher reposted an account which suggested several interesting altcoin plays. The obvious is Ethereum and the ETFs but also ETH-related projects like Pepe, Pendle and Lido. Then there is of course Solana and the discussions around an ETF for SOL – which leads to expectations that things like Jupiter and Jito will do well.

Also, not to forget about The Open Network. Projects surrounding TON such as Hamster Kombat, Notcoin and PIXFI have received a lot of attention as well.
Additionally, once Ethereum has its ETFs, no doubt attention will focus on discussions for funds of well-known blockchains such as Near Protocol, Avalanche and Cardano.
