Leveraging Artificial Intelligence for Altcoin Trading

Altcoins may finally be having their day in the sun. From Ethereum and Solana to emerging tokens in DeFi, gaming, and AI agents, altcoins offer diverse use cases and high-growth potential.

As the crypto market cycle matures and investor interest expands beyond Bitcoin, altcoins often see explosive price movements, especially during what’s known as an “alt season” in which altcoins significantly outperform Bitcoin.

With market sentiment turning bullish and liquidity flowing back into the broader crypto ecosystem, signs are pointing to an approaching alt season.

In such volatile and fast-paced trading environments, investors need every edge they can get and that includes using the latest AI tools such as the Bella Signal Bot and LLM Research Bot from Bella Protocol.

Let’s see how leveraging AI can help traders capitalize on the unique opportunities altcoins offer while managing the risks that come with them.

Is an Alt Season on the Horizon?

The crypto market is beginning to hint at a potential altseason, as some pundits believe that current technical indicators and growing market optimism suggest that May 2025 could mark the beginning of a broader altcoin surge, fueled by shifting capital flows and key trend signals.

One notable development is on the TOTAL2 chart, which tracks the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies excluding Bitcoin. This chart has recently broken above a downtrend that had been in place since January 2025.

Alongside this breakout, a bullish structure shift has emerged on the daily chart, with higher-low formations indicating upward momentum.

A strong breakout above the $1.25 trillion resistance level could confirm the start of a sustained uptrend, marked by a series of higher lows and higher highs. This would reflect a rotation of capital away from Bitcoin and into altcoins.

At the same time, the Bitcoin Dominance chart is showing signs of a market shift, having dropped 4% over the last six days, which is the sharpest decline since November 2024.

A decrease in BTC dominance usually points to increased capital inflows into altcoins, allowing them to gain market share and potentially fuel widespread price rallies.

Top Performing Altcoins in Recent Weeks

Indeed, many alt coins have already experienced rocketing price movements over the past several weeks. Among some of the best performing ones in the past 30 days include:

WIF – At the time of writing, dogwifhat (WIF) has shot up around 170% throughout the past month. The Solana-based meme coin features Shiba Inu in a beanie and is for its playful branding and viral community support.
SUI – SUI is the native token of the Sui blockchain, a high-performance Layer 1 network developed by Mysten Labs. It has shot up an astounding 82.5% over the last 30 days. Built using the Move programming language, Sui is designed for fast, low-cost transactions and supports next-gen Web3 apps.
PEPE – PEPE is a meme coin inspired by the iconic internet frog character. Launched as a tribute to meme culture, it gained viral popularity despite lacking formal utility or roadmap. It has seen strong price action recently, rising around 83% in the last 30 days and 53% in the last two weeks alone.
ETH – As the leading altcoin by market capitalization, Ethereum also represents the premier smart contract platform for decentralized applications (dApps). It powers everything from DeFi and NFTs to DAOs, and has increased by 62% in price even with its already massive market cap.
ARB – Arbitrum saw a jump of over 40% in the last month. As a top layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum that uses optimistic rollups to deliver faster, cheaper transactions, ARB holders look to shape the future of Ethereum’s L2 ecosystem.

All five of these top performing alt coins are featured trading pairs on the Bella Signal Bot, which provides subscribers with free, straight-forward long and short trading signals calculated via advanced AI models.

Signal Bot users would have booked impressive profits if they followed several of the recommended long signals over recent weeks.
