This is absolutely massive for Altcoins. The Alt market cap on the weekly is finally breaking out of an almost 2-year downtrend. It is now up +10% this week. It's crazy because historically, the 4-year cycle treats 2026 as a bear year, yet the market is pushing higher. We are still far from the old $451 billion high, so I’m not calling altseason yet. But this is the first genuine breakout attempt we have seen in years. We need a weekly close above this trendline to sustain the bullish momentum. If it fails, the same $160B–$190B zone could be tested again. What makes this wild? Bitcoin is back above $77k despite the Clarity Act failing and the Fed hiking interest rates. Alts are printing their first real weekly breakout of 2026 regardless. Maybe this time it is actually different.
