Bitcoin ( BTC ) metrics are signaling that the flagship crypto asset may soon print fresh all-time highs, according to new insights from market intelligence firm Swissblock. In a new post on the social media platform X, Swissblock says Bitcoin has more upside potential as key metrics have yet to suggest a top is in. “Has BTC topped? Current market structure suggests otherwise. Here are three concise, data-driven charts that point to further upside – grounded in: Liquidity timing. Behavioral signals. Capital rotation.” Swissblock says its “Optimal Signal” metric, which tracks the duration of prior explosive Bitcoin moves, suggests that the flagship crypto asset has the potential to remain in an uptrend for more than 10 additional days. “Based on Bitcoin Vector’s Optimal Signal, each of the last major BTC expansions has lasted 15-30 days. We are currently on day 12 – with capital also beginning to rotate into ETH. This cycle appears incomplete.” Source: Swissblock/X Next up, the firm looks at crypto analytics firm Glassnode’s Short Term Holder (STH) Relative Unrealized Profit metric, which is a measure of the total profit of all coins in existence whose price at realization time was lower than the current price, normalized by the market cap. “Glassnode’s Short-Term Holder Relative Unrealized Profit remains well below the threshold reached during prior cycle tops (January and April 2024). Market participants are not exhibiting signs of excessive profit-taking or euphoria – yet.” Source: Swissblock/X Lastly, the firm says that veteran on-chain analyst Willy Woo’s volume-weighted average price (VWAP) indicator, as well as his proprietary “Speculation Index,” suggests Bitcoin has yet to reach a cycle peak. VWAP is the average price of an asset over a period of time, but weighted for trading volume. “Both [Willy Woo’s] Speculation Index and VWAP Liquidity confirm that the market is not yet overheated. Neither indicator has reached prior cycle extremes, suggesting ongoing support for higher prices.” Source: Swissblock/X Bitcoin is trading for $119,042 at time of writing.

Ethereum (ETH) has finally experienced its long-awaited explosive rise, surpassing $3,000 for the first time since February and rising nearly 50 percent in the past month. This rise in Ethereum also stimulated altcoins and increased the belief in the market that the altcoin season has begun. At this point, Bitcoin is moving into a consolidation phase after reaching a new all-time high, while ETH is now taking the lead. Every Drop in Ethereum Is an Opportunity! As Ethereum continues its rapid rise, popular analyst Michael van de Poppe argued that Ethereum’s momentum after testing multiple resistances could push the price up to $4,000, last seen in December. Poppe also stated that Ethereum is ready to rise to higher prices, and that every subsequent decline is a buying opportunity. “I think Ethereum will head towards $4,000. So, if there are any corrections coming, it would be great to capitalize on them and buy on dips.” In another post, Poppe pointed out that Ethereum has gained even more value against Bitcoin, and that this is a sign that the next phase, the altcoin season, is about to begin. The analyst finally emphasized that altcoins generally follow the trend of altcoin leader Ethereum and that altcoins could soon initiate an explosive price movement. *This is not investment advice.

TL;DR As BTC retreats slightly from its $123K peak, top altcoins like ETH and XRP continue to surge. One analyst believes the altseason may begin as early as this week, drawing comparisons to patterns observed in previous bull cycles. Is It Finally Here? Less than a week ago, bitcoin (BTC) reached a new all-time high price of approximately $123,000. Since then, though , the primary cryptocurrency has cooled off slightly, giving room for some of the leading altcoins to record substantial gains , too . Over the past few days, Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP) , Stellar (XLM), Cardano (ADA), and many more have taken center stage thanks to their rapid price increases, while BTC’s dominance has slipped below 61%. BTC Dominance, Source: CMC These developments have led many in the crypto community to speculate that the altseason has either already begun or is just around the corner. One popular X user who shared their thoughts on the matter is 0xNobler. The analyst claimed the next altcoin season could start tomorrow (July 18), arguing that the same thing was observed in 2017 and 2021: “Every altseason started on the same day, and this one won’t be any different.” The X user suggested that the market is still in its early phase of an uptrend, with most capital concentrated in BTC and high-cap coins. Later, however, the interest could shift to smaller cryptocurrencies in terms of capitalization, while the dominance of the leader might continue to decline. “If this setup continues, the altcoin season could kick off next week, offering the best entry point. I’ve witnessed this pattern in past cycles, and recognizing it early changed everything,” the analyst added. Additionally, 0xNobler said they would accumulate several cryptocurrencies ahead of the next rally. Some of the well-known names include Hyperliquid (HYPE), Sui (SUI), Render (RENDER), and more . More Opinions Davinci Jeremie, a popular figure in the crypto space, widely known for urging people to buy BTC when its price was under $1, believes the altcoin season hasn’t arrived yet. However, he cautioned that when it starts, most will be too late. Altseason hasn’t started. But when it’s here, most will be too late. — Davinci Jeremie (@Davincij15) July 17, 2025 For his part, the veteran trader Peter Brandt argued that it’s already altseason. His thesis is based on the formation of a classical “cup with handle” on the chart, which shows the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies, excluding BTC.
