Some notable moves this week across larger altcoins:

Toncoin (TON) saw a sharp move higher over the past week Ondo (ONDO) gained momentum alongside renewed RWA interest Sui (SUI) continued trending higher amid ecosystem developments Zcash (ZEC) pushed into a major resistance area

What’s interesting is how this lines up with the broader TOTAL3 chart (total crypto market cap excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum).

From a technical perspective, TOTAL3 appears to be attempting a breakout from a structure resembling a cup-and-handle formation:

Extended base formation through March and April Consolidation/handle phase into late April Recent impulse move pushing market cap back toward the ~$750B–$765B region

If that breakout level continues holding as support, it could suggest improving risk appetite across the broader altcoin market.

Historically, stronger rotations tend to begin with a smaller group of leaders before expanding into the wider market.

That said, confirmation matters especially after multiple failed rallies over the past cycle.

Curious how others are interpreting this setup:

Is this the start of a broader altcoin rotation? Or just another relief rally within a larger range-bound market?
