FIL, ICP, CHZ, DOT, GRT give traders lottery feels 

Post the FOMC rate hike announcement mid week, altcoins have recovered from the slump and posted double-digit gains for holders. Amid the turbulence in the crypto market, CoinBureau’s Guy told his 2.09 million YouTube viewers that the purge in Q2 of 2022 laid the groundwork for a significant rally. 

Despite that, markets are aware of the macroeconomic outlook that triggered the recent crypto bloodbath and this could drive assets to potential new lows. 

In contrast to Guy’s views, Ed NL confessed to “loterry-like” feels when trading Filecoin (FIL), that offered 37% gains to holders, overnight. 

Other altcoins that offered massive gains to traders include ICP, GRT, CHZ and DOT. AVCrypto_, a pseudonymous crypto analyst, put forward the narrative that altcoins witness a surge in their price during Bitcoin price dips. While large pullbacks in Bitcoin offer traders an opportunity to accumulate, price rallies and smaller dips result in altcoin rallies. 

The analyst’s narrative fits the current situation where Bitcoin posted 3% gains and FIL, ICP, GRT, CHZ and DOT offered double-digit gains to holders. 

Altcoin Sherpa, leading technical analyst and trader told his 180,600 followers that a higher high is imminent in Bitcoin. High 20,000s are likely in the coming weeks and irrespective of BTC price movement, altcoins “should still flourish.”

Sherpa is convinced that the altcoin rally will remain unaffected by a massive recovery in Bitcoin.
