Altcoins vs Bitcoin: These are 3 Cryptos That Are Predicted to Rise Even if BTC Falls

Bittime - January 2025 has been a mixed month for the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin (BTC) managed to outperform altcoins, as seen by an almost 2% increase in the Bitcoin Dominance Rate (BTCD). This goes against BTCD's potential bearish trend since November 2024, when BTCD experienced a decline of more than 3%. 

Despite the improvement, BTCD has not managed to surpass its cycle peak, and the bearish candlestick pattern formed in November still remains.

Are There Any Cryptos That Are Predicted to Go Up when BTC Goes Down?

While most of the major altcoins have performed worse than Bitcoin, esp Ethereum (ETH), there are some exceptions such as Raydium (RAY), XRP, And XDC Network (XDC), which saw a rise of nearly 50% compared to Bitcoin's 12% rise.

3 Coins That Are Predicted to Rise Even though BTC Falls

This article will analyze three altcoins with bullish charts against Bitcoin (BTC), meaning they have the potential to outperform BTC in February.

1. XMR Creates a Bullish Pattern

XMR Price did not immediately start an upward movement. Instead, the price falls to pre-breakout levels and forms a double bottom pattern, which is considered a bullish pattern.

This pattern is combined with a bullish divergence in the weekly RSI and MACD. Bullish divergences on high time frames like this are rare and often lead to bullish trend reversals.

If this holds true for XMR, the price could increase by 80% and possibly reach 170%, with the nearest resistance at ₿0.0038 and ₿0.0057.

2. ONDO Flips to Support

ONDO Price also experienced a decline below the descending resistance trend line since December 16, 2024. This downward movement caused the price to reach a low of ₿0.000011, which briefly broke below the horizontal support area of ​​₿0.000013.

However, the price showed resilience by bouncing back and reclaiming the horizontal area. Shortly after, ONDO managed to break through the resistance trendline, confirming that the correction was over.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and MACD support this move, with the RSI crossing the 50 mark, while the MACD has just moved above 0 after making a bullish cross. These two indicators are considered positive signs.

If ONDO's rise continues, the price may increase by 20% and reach the horizontal resistance area at ₿0.000018.

3. TAO Price Drops Below Resistance

TAO Price  has been declining below a descending resistance trendline since October 2024. This trendline caused multiple rejections, with the most recent rejection occurring in January 2025. The rejection caused the price to fall to ₿0.0034, which briefly broke below the existing ₿0.0037 horizontal support area for more than six months.

However, TAO price soon recovered and managed to reclaim the support area. More importantly, TAO managed to break through a 107-day resistance trend line.

A bullish divergence in the green Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) preceded the breakout, increasing the legitimacy of the move. If this upward movement continues, the next resistance will be at ₿0.0071, which is a 65% increase from TAO's current price.
