The TronTRX token has soared to a record-breaking $20 billion market capitalization, signaling a positive trend for altcoins as we head into the new year.
In a remarkable surge, the TronTRX price reached an all-time high of $0.23, showing a 13% increase in just 24 hours leading up to 10:20 am UTC on December 3, according to data from Cointelegraph.
With TRX up by 42% on the monthly chart and over 101% year-to-date (YTD), many analysts see this new milestone as a promising signal for a potential altcoin season. This surge was further fueled by Tron founder Justin Sun’s announcement of becoming the largest investor in Donald Trump’s crypto project, investing $30 million in World Liberty Financial (WLFI) tokens on November 25.
As Bitcoin dominance fell below its two-year support line on November 30, indicating a shift towards altcoins, the stage is set for a possible altcoin rally. Investors seem to be diversifying their portfolios, with more funds flowing into promising altcoins like TRX.
December is shaping up to be the month of altcoins, with historical patterns suggesting a rally in smaller cryptocurrencies compared to Bitcoin’s market capitalization. Analysts are optimistic about an altcoin season that could see Ether (ETH) skyrocket to $4,000 before January 20, coinciding with the inauguration of President-elect Trump.
Beyond technical indicators, growing interest in altcoins like TRX can also be seen in global Google searches, which hit a three-month high in December. Tron’s Sun’s unconventional purchases, like a $6.2 million banana-taped-to-wall artwork, have also contributed to the token’s popularity.
The recent performance of other cryptocurrencies further reinforces the potential for an altseason. Hedera (HBAR) emerged as the best performer in November among the top 100 cryptocurrencies, rallying over 763% in just a month. This surge was fueled by retail interest following news of an investment firm seeking to launch a Hedera-based exchange-traded product (ETP).
