As Bitcoin (BTC) targets a retest of $60k, several top altcoins look poised for a similar rebound.
Toncoin (TON) and Chainlink (LINK) stand out among the top 20 by market cap, with the psychological $10 level likely to be key for both coins.
Meanwhile, the new cryptocurrency Bitcoin Dogs (0DOG) is attracting fresh interest akin to what followed its pioneering ICO on the Bitcoin network.
Bitcoin price: Bulls target $60k
BTC price has bounced off the $60,000 level since sinking to under $50,000 on August 5. However, the area has proven stubborn for bulls, which sees bulls still battling for a successful retest and breakout.
Investor sentiment related to the US Federal Reserve’s potential to cut interest rates has provided a positive outlook for stocks and crypto.
“Slowing US inflation boosted market confidence, sending equities back towards all-time highs. Continued rate cuts by major central banks like RBNZ reinforce the wave of global monetary easing,” Singapore-based trading firm QCP Capital noted.
However, the crypto market still has jitters related to the US government’s holdings after the $591 million BTC transfer to Coinbase.
The movement of the Silk Road bitcoins spooked some investors and saw BTC shrink, with the market worried about the 203 BTC that the US government still holds.
As can be seen in the daily chart below, the daily close above $59k may help bulls strategize for further upside momentum.
If bears strengthen, Bitcoin price may retreat to support below $57k.

The benchmark coin currently trades around $59,400, up 1.4% in the past 24 hours.
Toncoin, Chainlink price prediction
TON recently bounced off a key support level and tested highs of $7.26.
While the altcoin has returned to levels near $6.20 amid potential profit-taking, sentiment around the TON blockchain and Telegram could help the cryptocurrency’s price.
Notable listing on Turkey’s largest crypto exchange BtcTurk provided the boost buyers need to break above $7.00.
Price levels to watch for TON are likely $6.89 and $8.17 on the upside – which will allow for a retest of the psychological $10 level.
On the downside, $5.44 and $4.83 will be critical.

Chainlink on the other hand trades just above $10 after breaking lower since in March.
The downtrend line provides a robust challenge for bulls at $10.86 and a breakdown could see bears target the $8.0 area.
