Top Altcoins to Buy for the Next Altcoin Summer? Analyst Names 11 Picks

Published by

While much of the crypto market remains cautious, one crypto analyst says the setup for an altcoin comeback is quietly taking shape. In his latest market update, he argued that altcoins have already started outperforming Bitcoin and could see much stronger gains if macro conditions continue improving.

The analyst says investors should focus on projects with strong treasuries, real revenue, or a proven ability to survive long market downturns. 

Here are some of his Top Altcoins to Buy.

Worldcoin Tops the List

Among analyst’s highest-conviction picks is Worldcoin (WLD).

His bullish view centers on the project’s massive funding base. Worldcoin raised roughly $440 million from investors and has ties to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. According to him, that gives the project enough resources to continue building and supporting its ecosystem during weak market conditions.

He noted that many investors have written off Worldcoin after its sharp decline, but now the project is now showing signs of recovery as the broader market stabilizes.

AI Narrative Driven Coins: Render, Aethir, and Grass

The analyst also remains positive on several AI-related crypto projects.

Render (RNDR) stands out because it has been operating since 2021, survived multiple market cycles, and generated real revenue. The analyst said projects with established businesses are more likely to benefit when investor confidence returns.

He also noted that Aethir (ATH) and Grass (GRASS). Aethir focuses on decentralized computing infrastructure for AI applications, while Grass supplies data used by large AI models.

According to the analyst, both projects fit his preferred framework because they are tied to growing AI demand while also generating revenue. 

DeFi Picks: Jupiter and Pump.fun

Within the Solana ecosystem, he pointed to Jupiter (JUP) as one of the strongest projects benefiting from growing network activity.

He also discussed Pump.fun (PUMP), arguing that it offers a more attractive opportunity than some of the market’s recent winners. While Hyperliquid has already rallied, he thinks Pump.fun still has room to catch up if market sentiment improves.

Established Altcoins Could Return

Apart from new coins, he also named some of the established coins that still remain on his watchlist. 

That includes, Near Protocol (NEAR), XRP, Stellar (XLM), Cardano (ADA), and EOS.

According to the analyst, these projects have survived multiple bear markets, maintain strong communities, and still have enough resources to participate in the next altcoin cycle if liquidity flows back into crypto.

For now, his top altcoins to buy includes Worldcoin (WLD), Render (RNDR), Aethir (ATH), Grass (GRASS), Jupiter (JUP), Pump.fun (PUMP), Near Protocol (NEAR), XRP, Stellar (XLM), Cardano (ADA), and EOS as potential beneficiaries of a broader altcoin recovery.
