Altcoins to Watch After Ethereum Breaks $3,000

Bitcoin (BTC) continues to establish new all-time highs (ATH). However, a quiet shift beneath the surface draws investors attention as Ethereum (ETH) steadily shows strength.

Against this backdrop, crypto analysts are already pivoting to altcoins, with some tokens overlapping among traders lists.

Analysts Lock in High-Potential Altcoins As Ethereum Breaks $3,000

Bitcoin ascended to a new ATH, and Ethereum reclaimed the $3,000 psychological level as crucial support. As of this writing, ETH has been trading for $3,007, up by over 8% in the last 24 hours.

The foray above $3,000 marks a pivotal moment that many believe will kickstart a broad-based altcoin breakout. Based on this, sentiment is already tilting towards aggressive altcoin rotation.

#Altcoins are pushing for a breakout from the massive cup & handle!

Pattern almost completed – break above $1T again and I doubt this train stops moving anytime soon.

While so many altcoins are in the catalog, some analysts are circling the same names.

Ran Neuner, an investor and founder of Crypto Banter, placed Hyperliquid, Sui, Jito (JTO), Raydium (RAY), Aerodrome (AERO), Bittensor (TAO), and Sonic (S) at the top of his list.

“My Perfect Top 10: BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, SUI, JTO, RAY, AERO, TAO, and S,” wrote Neuner.

These picks skew toward emerging ecosystems like Solana (SOL) and Base blockchain tokens and early movers in AI and DeFi infrastructure.

Altcoin Daily shared a similar list, spotlighting TAO, SUI, and Solana. However, this analyst also brought in other heavyweights like Ondo Finance (ONDO), Chainlink (LINK), and Cardano (ADA).

This selection is skewed toward RWA (Real-World Assets) tokens.

Meanwhile, with SUI and TAO appearing on both lists, the altcoin picks suggest growing consensus around their high-upside narratives.

Altcoin Index Enters Altseason Zone As Bitcoin Dominance Drops

Elsewhere, market watchers have declared the start of altseason, citing historical cycle patterns and the weakening dominance of Bitcoin.

“Bitcoin dominance is going down…That means the altcoins performance is outpacing BTC…The real big gains will come from somewhere other than BTC,” wrote analyst CW.

His view reflects the broader shift in momentum that has historically fueled altcoin runs as capital rotates. Macro signals echo that trend, with Wimar.X noting that the altcoin index hit the altcoin season zone.

ALTCOINS INDEX JUST HIT THE #ALTSEASON ZONE ????

Alts are moving just like in 2017 and 2021 — 100x pumps have started.

2025 won‘t be an exception — Alts’ MC will hit $15 TRILLION this cycle.

Heres why altseason begins and alts with 1000x potential

The analyst‘s watchlist includes frontier projects like VIRTUAL, Synthetix (SNX), SONIC, and even AmericaParty (AP), the meme token inspired by Elon Musk’s new political project.

Indeed, while it may be premature to declare an all-in altseason, the altcoin index has escaped the Bitcoin season territory.

The convergence of narratives, AI, real-world assets, modular infrastructure, synthetic trading, and cultural memes points to a maturing yet still explosive altcoin ecosystem.

With the Ethereum price holding above $3,000 and Bitcoin showing signs of distribution, the market may shift its focus toward high-fundamental projects.
