TREE NEWS reports: Glassnode data shows altcoin spot trading volume has climbed to nearly four times that of bitcoin, the highest level since September 2025, as spot traders rotate into altcoins. The analytics firm noted that similar surges in demand for higher-risk assets have historically coincided with interim bitcoin tops.
Glassnode: Altcoin Spot Volume Nears 4x Bitcoin’s, Highest Since Sept 2025
This is a rotation signal more than a price call: spot flow is migrating down the risk curve, and Glassnode's own framing ties comparable surges to interim bitcoin tops. The read-through matters most for traders holding bitcoin as the portfolio anchor while chasing altcoin beta, since the two sides of that trade are now moving on very different demand. Whether the ratio keeps widening or mean-reverts is the open question, and Glassnode's historical parallel is the thing to weigh against it.
