Bittensor rose 12% and Zcash gained 10.2% over the past 24 hours as traders rotated into high-beta altcoins following Bitcoin's rebound from $105,000 to $110,000. BNB slipped 12.3% weekly despite a 4.1% daily rise, reflecting profit-taking and shifting market focus. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic, citing macro conditions as key to sustained momentum.

Bitcoin held above $105,000 over the weekend, climbing toward $109,405 as analysts point to signs of a potential local bottom. The move follows dovish signals from the Federal Reserve and easing U.S.-China trade tensions. Market focus now shifts to Friday's inflation data and upcoming trade negotiations in Malaysia.

Bitcoin markets approach a critical juncture with $22.3 billion in crypto options expiring this Friday, including $17 billion in BTC contracts - one of the largest expirations on record. Analysts warn that breaching the $108,000 support could trigger a cascade to $96,000, while a softer inflation reading might spark a strong rally.

Bitcoin trades sideways at $111,800 as a strengthening US dollar index (up 1.63% from Wednesday's low) pressures both gold and equity markets from recent highs. Analysts point to August's Core PCE data as a critical catalyst that could end Bitcoin's September slump and potentially fuel a Q4 rally.
