Arthur Hayes’s Holy Trinity of Altcoins
Arthur Hayes is known as one of the top crypto influencers, with a decent following in the markets. Recently, he called ZCash (ZEC), Hyperliquid (HYPE), and Near Protocol (NEAR) the holy trinity of altcoins, expressing confidence that these coins could be major long-term winners due to their unique positioning in the crypto markets.
Hyperliquid (HYPE)
Hyperliquid is a decentralized trading platform where users can simply start trading almost every asset by just connecting their wallets, i.e., without any KYC. The platform has grown as one of the largest crypto platforms and is the largest decentralized trading platform in the crypto market.
HYPE is the platform’s token and currently has a market cap of $10.9 billion, making it the 10th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.
ZCash (ZEC)
ZCash is a privacy-focused altcoin that protects users’ transactions from being tracked. It offers shielded accounts and normal accounts. Shielded accounts prevent anyone from tracking your transactions, wallet balances, etc., while normal accounts function like other chains, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This helps users get true privacy in all respects.
The crypto is the 11th-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, with $10.83 billion.
Near Protocol (NEAR)
Near Protocol is the largest AI infrastructure provider in the crypto markets and offers blockchain technology to AI projects with high scalability and low fees. The project is also active in the AI agent space.
The crypto holds the spot of the 31st largest cryptocurrency in the market with a market cap of $3 billion.
When Will Altcoins Rally Next?
Altcoins are not expected to rally soon, given the current state of the crypto markets. There is an ongoing liquidity crisis, trade uncertainties, fuel shortages, and geopolitical tensions.
An altcoin rally is only possible if these issues get resolved soon and the markets get some breathing space through liquidity injections by events like rate cuts.
We assume the same would only be possible in the next 3-6 months, before which an altcoin rally looks nearly impossible.
