Bitcoin's rally, 8 underestimated altcoins, and positive news from US crypto market

This image is no longer relevant

Rapid changes continue to sweep through the cryptocurrency market: Bitcoin is once again approaching its all-time highs, key altcoins are posting confident gains, and investors are exploring new profit opportunities. Against this backdrop, well-known crypto analyst Michael van de Poppe has identified eight promising altcoins that could deliver both short- and long-term returns — an excellent opportunity for traders and investors alike.

In his latest YouTube video, van de Poppe reminded viewers that undervalued assets are instruments whose current market price is significantly below their fundamental value. According to the expert, such assets can bring substantial profits to those who manage to enter the market at the right time and correctly assess their growth potential.

Van de Poppe cited Bitcoin as an example: in 2021, when its price was nearing $70,000, it was considered highly overvalued. However, Bitcoin's price dropped to around $20,000 after the collapse of FTX and Terra Luna, creating rare buying opportunities at attractive valuations. These sharp repricing periods, he noted, offer traders the best chances to enter the market or lock in profits.

This time, the analyst points to eight altcoins with high potential: Optimism (OP), Bittensor (TAO), SEI, Wormhole (W), Renzo (REZ), Celestia (TIA), AO, and RocketPool. In van de Poppe's view, the market is currently in a state of "depression" toward altcoins — trading volumes are low, venture activity has slowed, and marketing campaigns have all but disappeared. Yet such moments, he argues, present careful traders with the chance to profit from future recoveries in liquidity and volatility.

A significant signal for market participants came from the US, where President Donald Trump signed an executive order allowing pension funds to invest in cryptocurrencies through alternative and private assets. Following this news, Bitcoin rose 3.4% on Monday to $122,084.1, coming within reach of its all-time high of $123,000 set in July. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, climbed 2.3% to $4,314.89, leaving it just $500 shy of its 2021 record.

Institutional interest in cryptocurrencies is also on the rise: leading US Bitcoin ETFs reported several days of record inflows immediately after the presidential order was announced. The effect of the regulatory liberalization was further reinforced by the passage of a bill establishing a legal framework for stablecoins — another step toward broad, regulated investment in digital assets.

Corporate news is also buoying the crypto market: US video platform Rumble Inc. announced plans to acquire German AI company Northern Data AG for $1.17 billion, a deal that could make stablecoin giant Tether the largest shareholder in the combined entity.

Among Monday's notable moves: XRP rose 0.7% to $3.2782 after an amicable settlement of its dispute with the SEC; Solana added 2.2%; and Cardano gained 1.5%. Meme tokens were mixed — Dogecoin edged up 0.5%, while $TRUMP slipped 1.5%.

Analysts anticipate that Bitcoin could break its all-time high in the coming days, with a test of $123,236 likely paving the way for further growth within an expanding channel toward $130,000 or even $141,000 — a 16% gain from current levels. A pullback may occur around $130,000, seen as a strong resistance zone unlikely to be breached immediately. Nonetheless, the overall bullish trend is expected to remain intact, with new records possible in the fall.

With the crypto market heating up and institutional demand growing, traders now have unique opportunities to profit:

  • Monitor the undervalued altcoins highlighted by Michael van de Poppe and consider entering positions before mainstream interest picks up.
  • Use Bitcoin and leading altcoins' volatility for short-term trades or long-term investments.
  • Test strategies based on corporate news and institutional initiatives, tracking capital inflows into ETFs.

While many remain skeptical, the market is opening its doors to those able to analyze trends and respond quickly to the news flow.
