The crypto market is full of surprises, but November could be a turning point. Traders and whales are quietly stacking certain altcoins. At the same time, the rest of the market remains distracted. If you think the crypto market is slow right now, think again. November might bring some of the most exciting moves of the year. In this video, I will reveal four altcoins that are trending under the radar. 2 However, they are also showing signals of a potential massive surge.
I will analyze why these altcoins are gaining momentum. You will find out what to watch for in the coming weeks. This allows you to position yourself strategically before it’s too late.
Solana ($SOL)
Solana ($SOL) is the first one of today’s list of altcoins. So, Solana has all the ingredients to pump in November. Only a few days ago, I talked about 4 Solana ecosystem gems. Check the video here.
So, first things first. Solana and ETFs, that’s the keyword here. That’s where the action is. Hong Kong’s Solana $SOL spot ETF will start trading tomorrow. That’s the first ever $SOL spot ETF. But that’s not all. 21Shares $SOL spot ETF cleared the Form 8-A with the SEC. That’s generally considered a green-light for launch. This one also comes with 6–7% staking yield to holders.

Another Solana ETF decision is now up for review by November 14, 2025. That’s Franklin Templeton’s $SOL spot ETF. This could give a serious price injection to $SOL. The current news already gives $SOL a green candle. It’s up 5.6% on the day.
The largest Solana Protocol change ever is about to take place. Alpenglow is Solana’s new consensus protocol. It involves a fundamental redesign of how validators operate. Furthermore, it introduces a new way of achieving consensus. For example,
BREAKING NEWS: @anza_xyz research team announces new state of the art Solana Consensus on stage at Solana Accelerate.
The new Alpenglow protocol 🌄 brings transaction finality down to 100-150ms — a 100x improvement over today’s latency.

- Off-chain voting with fewer on-chain votes.
- Larger blocks.
- A 100x improvement over today’s latency. Latency is the time it takes to submit a transaction and when it’s confirmed.
- Improved finality and throughput. Finality is when you can’t reverse a transaction in a block anymore. This goes from around 12 seconds to 150 ms. That’s a massive improvement.
The current $SOL price is $200. 9 Next target $300?
I scooped more $SOL at $174 price level cos price is likely headed for $253 and subsequently $300.
But first, the Daily/4h bearish Imbalance has to fail for this to happen, cos the monthly TF CRT is bearish and could use the daily/4h imbalance to continue the sell.

Ethereum ($ETH)
Ethereum ($ETH) is next in line for altcoins that can pump in November. I also dove into Ethereum in one of my videos last week. Check it out here. In this video, Tom Lee has a prominent role. And for good reasons. He and his Bitmine are a great part of the current $ETH price development. Today, $ETH is up by 7.4% and broke comfortably through the $4,200 barrier.
Tom Lee said that $ETH will remain in a supercycle. Its strong fundamentals are now leading its price. Lee mentioned surging stablecoin demand and $ETH transactions hitting all-time highs. See the picture below.

In last week’s video, I also looked at Ethereum Treasury accumulation. After Tom Lee’s Bitmine, publicly traded SharpLink Gaming is second in that department. Well, they just loaded up on another 19,271 $ETH. That’s worth around $81 million. This also shows that whales keep accumulating $ETH.

Ethereum’s next big protocol upgrade, Fusaka, is being targeted for early November. It should improve scalability, efficiency, data availability, and cost-structure of the network. It builds on prior major forks such as the Dencun upgrade and the Pectra upgrade. Fusaka should position Ethereum for the next wave of roll-ups and Layer-2 scaling. This should improve our user experience.
What a difference a quarter makes.

There’s also increased institutional interest in Ethereum. For example, during Q3, $ETH ETFs inflows surpassed $BTC for the first time.
The current $ETH price is $4,169. Can $ETH double this price by the end of this year? Let me know in the comments how you see $ETH’s price by year’s end.
Whales are running the same playbook again.

Chainlink ($LINK)
With Chainlink ($LINK) we landed at one of my all-time fave altcoins. Chainlink will be present at the SmartCon conference in early November. That in itself is not big news. However, SWIFT, Mastercard, JPMorgan, will attend. In general, more and more Web3, finance, and governance actors will also be there. So, announcements and partnerships during SmartCon can trigger a surge in interest. SmartCon takes place on November 4th and 5th in NYC.
THE ROAD TO SMARTCON STARTS NOW
• What others announce in a year, we’re shipping in 3 weeks
• A rapid expansion of Chainlink’s massive ecosystem converging TradFi & DeFi
• Each week builds on the last, with all roads leading to SmartCon

Chainlink’s presence in the RWA market is also growing. This market can go to $16 trillion by 2030. So, this is something to keep an eye out for. Chainlink’s CCIP is a key player in this. This is Chainlink’s cross-chain data transfer protocol. It currently offers access to 60+ blockchains. Chainlink is a key player in the tokenization process of various assets. For example, stablecoins.

At the same time, the Chainlink Reserve also keeps growing. In October 23rd, another 63,481.88 $LINK was added. This brings the total now to total of 586,640.66 $LINK. This Reserve supports the long-term growth and sustainability of the Chainlink Network. All the accumulated $LINK is taken ‘out’ of circulation. This increases scarcity of the $LINK token.

Today, the Chainlink Reserve has accumulated 63,481.88 LINK.

Chainlink also keeps adding new integrations. Today, it announced 17 integrations across 6 services and 11 different chains. These chains included, among others, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, BNB, Ethereum, MegaETH, and more.

The current $LINK price is almost $18.50, 2.6% up on the day. Its immediate target is $22. However, can it go all the way to $81 or higher by the end of this year?
Bittensor ($TAO)
Bittensor ($TAO) takes us into the AI sector. Along with RWA, this is currently one of the most exciting sectors in crypto. At the same time, Bittensor is also a pillar in the DePIN vertical.
Like many of today’s altcoins, institutions are taking a liking to Bittensor. For example, Tao Synergies, (Nasdaq: TAOX), is now the largest publicly traded holder of $TAO. In other words, it extended its $TAO Treasury to 54,000 TAO. It achieved this number by buying more $TAO and by staking rewards. That’s a neat $22.4 million at current prices.

Another institution, Grayscale, has a Decentralized AI Fund. This Fund consists of 6 components. $TAO is the second-biggest component with a share of 22.15%. Grayscale also filed a Form 10 for a Grayscale Bittensor Trust $TAO. Take a look at my recent $TAO video here. It digs a bit deeper into institutional interest for Bittensor.
At the end of the day on 10/3/2025, Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund Components were a basket of the following assets and weightings. $NEAR $TAO $IP $RENDER $FIL $GRT

As you may know, Bittensor follows Bitcoin to a degree with its tokenomics. 10 There will only ever be 21 million $TAO. Furthermore, the $TAO token will have halving events. Its first halving will be in early December. Of course, this will reduce token issuance significantly. It’s also expected to create a serious supply-side tailwind ahead of the event.
Are you ready for the $TAO halving? 👀 pic.twitter.com/JH5rjrvgl1

The current $TAO price is $401. Can it reach $500 or even $700 next?
