Speculating on the possibility of an upcoming altseason

Today we have altcoin news, as well as charts that surprised us. We have collected here the most interesting stuff from the crypto world for the last 24 hours.

According to a number of experts, Binance will soon take steps that will cause strong growth in the altcoin market. Previously, CZ himself also promised the market’s imminent growth, though without giving details.

According to opinion, the altcoin market needs new successful projects and a hype atmosphere to revitalize. The emergence of such projects is a common sign of a chain reaction that leads to a bull market.

It’s probably Glassnode’s mistake or they’ve somehow changed their calculation formula, but this jump looks extremely unrealistic.
