The altcoin market capitalization has currently surpassed the mark of 775 billion US dollars, signaling a significant upward movement in the crypto market. Since the beginning of the year, the value has increased by more than 90%, after previously overcoming the mark of about 600 billion US dollars. Following the recent breakout above a key resistance zone, a new upward trend has been confirmed.
Resistances and Bitcoin Dominance
Technically, the next hurdles lie around 790 and 800 billion US dollars, with potential for further increase towards previous highs around 850 billion US dollars. At the same time, Bitcoin dominance remains at around 64%, the highest level since February 2021. This indicates that institutional investors continue to prefer investing in Bitcoin and remain cautious towards smaller altcoin projects.
Positioning of XRP
XRP is currently stable at a price of about 2.13 US dollars, with prospects for a potential upward movement. An important development step for XRP is the introduction of a Euro-backed stablecoin on the XRP Ledger by Ripple Labs in collaboration with SocGen Forge. This initiative was presented at the Paris Blockchain Week and aims to promote institutional adoption in the European space.
Positioning of SOL
Solana (SOL) is also considered one of the significant altcoins. Although specific current price data is lacking, Solana is generally regarded as an important project – particularly due to its fast transaction speed and its ecosystem for decentralized applications.
Outlook for the Altcoin Market
Traders expect that a successful breakout of the overall market (TOTAL-3) above the resistance level will lead to further capital inflows into the entire altcoin sector. Despite the prevailing bitcoin dominance, projects like XRP offer attractive opportunities through institutional partnerships and technological innovations.
