A widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader is leaning bullish on the altcoin market but with a caveat. The analyst pseudonymously known as Capo tells his 929,300 followers on the social media platform X that altcoins could go up by double-digit percentage points from the current level. “Expecting altcoins to pump 10%-20% from here. However, I believe this bounce is a bull trap because a big drop is likely to follow.” Source: Capo/X A bull trap is a move designed to lure in retail traders via a fake breakout but instead of continuing to rise, the asset abruptly reverses and moves sharply to the downside.

Bitcoin is trading at $97,460 at time of writing. The...
