While Bitcoin (BTC) continues to dominate the crypto market—reaching a new all-time high following Donald Trump’s election victory—most altcoins remain well below their peak values.
Ethereum (ETH), in particular, has yet to catch up, leaving investors wondering when the altcoin rally will begin.
According to a recent report by major Swiss bank Sygnum, the wait may soon be over.
Sygnum Predicts Altcoin Recovery in Q2 2025
Sygnum analysts believe that altcoins are poised for a recovery in the second quarter of 2025, citing improving crypto regulation and growing user adoption as key catalysts. The report suggests that easing regulatory pressure in the U.S., combined with President Trump’s push to create digital asset reserves and support for stablecoin frameworks, could help accelerate altcoin momentum.
“Bitcoin’s dominance reached a four-year high in April,” the report noted, “but we expect protocols that engage users with Trump’s incentives to outperform, leading to a decline in BTC dominance.”
Which Altcoins Could Lead the Next Wave?
The report highlights several promising protocols expected to benefit from this shift. Among the most notable altcoins and platforms mentioned are:
Additionally, Base, Coinbase’s Layer-2 network, was cited as a leading infrastructure player that could see increased adoption and developer activity.
As institutional interest in crypto deepens and regulatory clarity improves, Sygnum believes the conditions are forming for altcoins to reclaim investor attention—and potentially break out from Bitcoin’s long shadow.
