• Altcoins show greater bullish signals as Bitcoin price struggles. 
  • Ripple’s XRP is one of the most bullish altcoins this bull cycle. 
  • Analysts expects next trend high XRP targets at $3.66 and $3.75 this altseason.

Altcoins are slowly taking centre stage as Bitcoin price continues in its glacial sideways movement. This boring momentum has led to a decline in market sentiment which today, stands at a score of 61 marking ‘Greed’ sentiment on the Crypto Fear & Greed Index. With BTC at the $94,000 price mark, more and more analysts are looking towards altcoins. 

In Q1 of 2025 in particular, expectations for altcoin prices to hit new bullish ATHs are greater than ever before. This is due to historical data highlighting how every Q1 following a Bitcoin Halving year has always led to the peak of a bull cycle’s altseason. As we are currently in this phase now, altcoins too are adding to this high frenzy of expectations. 

Analyst Expects 40% Pump for Solana

One such altcoin showing strong bullish signals at the moment is Solana (SOL). According to CoinMarketCap analytics, SOL is presently at a price of $182. The analyst in the post above says the asset is consolidating a symmetrical triangle pattern. This could lead to a bullish breakout of over $214. This means a pump of around 40% is highly likely for the altcoin in the coming days ahead. 

$457.97 Bull Target Appears for SOL Price

Meanwhile, another analyst has an even more bullish expectation for SOL price. As we can see from the post above, the analyst says that SOL prices are sustaining well after delivering a bull flag retest. He says a breakout run is highly likely and could lead to a pump of over 81% to hit a target of $360 and above. Once this plays out a higher target of $457.97 will also be likely.
