As our tactical altcoin model continues to favor Bitcoin over altcoins, only a handful of names outperformed this week. The standouts were Hyperliquid (+18%), Jupiter (+26%), and Virtuals (+72%), each showing strong weekly gains despite muted market conditions. While perpetual futures funding rates have normalized, they still signal limited speculative activity, and trading volumes have dropped to around $85 billion—well below the $200–$250 billion average of recent months—suggesting the market remains in a holding pattern.
Altcoin-dominated markets like Korea have also seen volumes slip below $1 billion. Although steady stablecoin inflows provide a soft backstop, most investors remain risk-averse after the sharp October 10–11 selloff that left many nursing losses.
