Michaël van de Poppe, a market analyst and founder of MN Trading, posted on X on Monday, September 28, 2026, about his market outlook for altcoins. He indicated that he has been adjusting his portfolio in anticipation of a short-term market shift. Van de Poppe stated, "I've been adding a little more into cash into my #Altcoin portfolio over the past days, as months' end are usually periods where you'd be seeing a corrective move. Not deep, just a slight correction and then we'll move on going into Q4, as I'm very bullish on that quarter."
Van de Poppe's comments come as the broader cryptocurrency market shows signs of strong investor interest. Recent Gokhshtein Media coverage noted that Bitcoin hit $87,000, and the ETH/BTC ratio has indicated a potential altcoin breakout. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index currently sits at 74, signaling 'Greed' among market participants. This sentiment aligns with van de Poppe's observation that corrections often occur when market enthusiasm, or FOMO, is high.
According to van de Poppe, such a correction would be minor and should be viewed as a strategic buying opportunity for favored assets. His statement suggests that investors should prepare for a temporary dip in altcoin values but maintain a positive outlook for the final quarter of 2026. He believes the market is poised for significant upward movement after this brief consolidation period.
