Altcoins are showing strength after one of the toughest liquidation events over the weekend. Despite the turbulence, investors have defended a key structural zone strongly. As accumulation increases and technicals align, analysts suggest the sector is set for an expansion in the months ahead.
Currently, chart structures point toward an extended bullish continuation where, if the total altcoin market cap reclaims the $1.1–$1.2 trillion level, a push toward $1.7T could follow. This target marks the upper boundary of the consolidation phase, suggesting that the next rally could be forming.
According to analyst Jelle, the total market value of Altcoins (TOTAL3) has kept above the $1 trillion level, which is an important indicator of a long-term bull. The continuity of higher lows indicates a great underlying momentum that investors are still accumulating, although the market is volatile. Every time a rebound has been made out of the lower support, this base has been reinforced, making it less probable of a deeper breakdown.

Moreover, consolidation after the recovery cycle of 2024 is approaching exhaustion as leverage in the market has been washed out, and liquidity is repricing on large tokens. These stages are preparations for major breakouts, as the strained volatility dumps into a new wave. As soon as TOTAL3 recovers the resistance band above $1.1 trillion, the path to the target of 1.7T will be straightforward.
In addition to charts, the crypto ecosystem is evolving as institutional involvement has gone up in DeFi, gaming, and tokenizing real-world assets, which strengthens optimism in the sector's growth. More so, the key upgrades deployed by major alt projects are enhancing the efficiency and scalability of the network, thereby attracting liquidity and developer activity.
With the diversification of the ecosystem, investors are less reliant on specific projects, while distributing capital in innovative sectors that contribute to the stability of the sector.
After recent corrections, the trend has stabilized with liquidity rotating towards mid-cap and emerging tokens. The change is a return to the early altseason prices observed in previous cycles, where suppressed volatility is replaced by capital inflows.
Notably, the position of altcoins is on the rise, as long as structural support remains stable. Liquidity accumulation in key zones and the alignment of technicals make a rise towards $1.7 trillion reachable. More so, this recovery could be turned into the next significant uptrend due to market resiliency as well as the accelerating adoption.
At the time of reporting, the overall market cap of Altcoins is $1.05 trillion, which indicates the continuous accumulation with increasing confidence.
