Layer 1 altcoins experienced a significant correction in June, following Bitcoin’s decline to $60,000. This downturn was largely driven by Bitcoin miners selling off to cover operational costs and significant outflows from U.S.-based ETFs. 

However, the selling pressure began to subside last week, allowing Bitcoin to recover from the $60k mark and enabling altcoins to establish local bottoms.

Moreover, a renowned trader CryptoDan noted a positive shift that could herald a bullish rally for the market in the third quarter of 2024. The recent X post highlighted,

“채굴자들의 매도 우려 해소, 3분기 상승 랠리 가능”

최근 암호화폐 시장을 하락시킨 고래 중 하나는 채굴자들로 볼 수 있습니다.

최근까지 시장은 채굴자들의 매도물량을 완벽히 소화하지 못하고 있었으나 아래 두 가지 근거로 채굴자들의 매도 압력이 매우 낮아졌다고 볼 수 있습니다.

“The quantity of Bitcoin sent by miners to exchanges for sale has decreased significantly since May.”

“The volume of the OTC trading desk used by miners for selling purposes was piling up as they could not find a buyer until recently, but on June 29th, the volume of the OTC trading desk was all consumed. It’s highly likely that someone has shown up to buy their Bitcoin.”

Given these developments, here are some top Layer 1 cryptos investors might consider for potential gains in the upcoming post-correction rally.

Over the past two weeks, the HBAR price has been moving sideways, trying to hold above a multi-month support trendline at $0.073. The daily charts show lower price rejection candles, indicating increased demand at this support level, which bolsters the potential for a reversal.

By the press time, the Hedera coin shows a market of $2.73 Billion, while the trading volume jumped 63.75% since yesterday to reach $45.9 million.

If the market experiences renewed buying pressure, HBAR could breach the $0.085 resistance, signaling an early reversal. A successful breakout could further encourage buyers, with targets set at $0.12 and $0.14

This shift has allowed altcoins to find suitable support levels and prepare for a bullish reversal. As the market enters a post-correction rally, Bitcoin price eyes for a new high, offering fresh long opportunities in prominent layer 1 altcoins.
