Altcoin Dominance on Binance Futures
An altseason appears to be in full swing as daily trading volumes on Binance Futures have surged to $100.7 billion, the highest level since February 3. This surge in activity comes as Bitcoin reaches new highs in July, sparking renewed interest in altcoins. Altcoins now make up 71% of the total trading volume on Binance Futures, signaling a clear shift in trader attention away from Bitcoin.Binance's Central Role in Altseason
Binance remains at the center of the altcoin surge, with a total altcoin volume of $57.6 billion across centralized exchanges (CEXs), and handling $24 billion of that volume. This means that nearly half of all altcoin spot trades are now occurring on Binance, solidifying its dominance as the altseason heats up.Bitcoin Exchange Inflows and Altcoin Rotation
Bitcoin has seen its largest net exchange inflows since July 2024, with over 32,000 BTC entering CEXs. This influx suggests increased profit-taking and potential distribution by major holders, which could lead to capital rotation into altcoins. As more BTC enters exchanges, market volatility may rise, especially if demand for altcoins continues to surge.Selective Altseason and TRX Performance
Crypto analyst Timo Oinonen warns that only a few tokens may benefit from the capital influx, pointing to Tron (TRX) as an early indicator of a "selective altseason." TRX has consistently outperformed Bitcoin since March, showing signs of decoupling from the dominant cryptocurrency. This decoupling is often seen at the beginning of previous altseasons, indicating a potential shift in capital towards higher-beta assets for greater upside potential.Share this news
