According to data, the trading volume of altcoins on the Binance contract platform surged to $100.7 billion in a single day, marking the highest record since February 3, 2025. This figure not only signifies a significant rebound in the altcoin market but also reflects that retail funds are accelerating their return to the market following Bitcoin's breakthrough to a historical high, igniting a new wave of market enthusiasm.
Surge in Altcoin Trading Volume, Market Sentiment Shifts
Altcoins now account for 71% of the total trading volume on Binance contracts, meaning nearly three-quarters of trading activity is driven by altcoins rather than the traditional market leader—Bitcoin. This phenomenon is not coincidental; historically, surges in altcoin trading volume are closely related to significant price increases in Bitcoin. On July 14, 2025, Bitcoin broke through $120,000, setting a new historical high and boosting overall market sentiment. As the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, ETH followed closely, with its price rapidly climbing from $3,099 to over $3,600, currently reported at $3,703, still having room to reach its historical high of $4,871.
Three Types of Altcoins to Watch:
Ethereum Ecosystem Infrastructure Tokens:
Robust investment choices in Ethereum ecosystem infrastructure projects have become the preferred option for institutions and seasoned traders due to their solid technology and high market recognition. As a leading decentralized oracle network, Chainlink (LINK) provides critical data support for DeFi and Web3.

Ethereum Ecosystem Meme Coins: High Risk, High Reward
Although Meme coins in the Solana and BSC ecosystems are gaining more popularity, the liquidity spillover from ETH's rise may still drive a short-term explosion in Ethereum ecosystem Meme coins.

Future Outlook
The surge in altcoin trading volume to $100.7 billion not only reflects a rekindled enthusiasm for crypto assets but also suggests that the crypto market may enter a new growth cycle. However, investors need to remain rational and pay attention to the following key points:
Keep an Eye on Bitcoin Trends: As a market barometer, Bitcoin's subsequent performance will directly impact the trading activity of altcoins.
Beware of High Leverage Risks: High-leverage contracts provide momentum for altcoin trading but may also amplify market volatility, leading to liquidation risks.
In-Depth Research on Project Fundamentals: In the altcoin frenzy, selecting projects with long-term value and solid fundamentals is crucial.
