Altcoin Momentum Shifts as Quant, Sui, and Bittensor Take Center Stage
Quant, Sui, and Bittensor are three altcoins that traders and investors are closely watching in the first week of October 2026.
Quant's price surged from $64 to $286.64 in a single week after a major banking partnership was announced, representing a gain of nearly 350%.
The project was selected by The Clearing House to support tokenized deposit settlement across 25 major U.S. banks, sparking a massive rally and pushing the price above three major lower highs.
The momentum remains strong, with an RSI reading of 86, but a pullback of around 27% before recovering toward $284.30.
Sui gained momentum following the launch of the Hashi protocol, which allows Bitcoin holders to use their holdings as collateral on the network, and price recently reached the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level at $1.25.
However, the price now trades near $1.20, and a pullback toward the 0.618 level at $1.12 appears possible, with additional support levels at $0.94 and $0.82.
Bittensor, on the other hand, continues to work through a recovery phase after months of selling pressure, with price remaining below the Ichimoku Cloud and showing that sellers maintain an advantage.
