Altcoin Market Sees Largest Bullish Sentiment Surge Since Bitcoin's All-Time High
Investor sentiment in the altcoin market has entered a bullish phase, according to on-chain analytics firm Glassnode. The firm reported that funding rates for 85% of all altcoins are above each asset's average level.
This reading is the highest since Bitcoin traded at an all-time high and such conditions can persist for several weeks during an altcoin season, Glassnode added.
Funding rates are payments exchanged between long and short traders in the perpetual futures market. Higher funding rates typically indicate that more investors are betting on prices rising.
Glassnode's analysis suggests that investor sentiment is shifting towards a bullish outlook, which could have significant implications for the altcoin market.
