Several altcoins are drawing investor attention this weekend as volatility creates both upside potential and notable downside risks. Midnight (NIGHT) has quickly positioned itself as one of the strongest-performing altcoins following its launch. The token has surged more than 60% in a short period, reflecting strong speculative demand and enthusiasm around new blockchain projects.
Investor interest has been fueled largely by its association with Charles Hoskinson and its connection to the Cardano ecosystem via the Midnight blockchain. With its market capitalization already surpassing $1 billion, NIGHT is trading near $0.064 and could attempt a breakout above key resistance levels, potentially revisiting its all-time high near $0.088. However, as with many newly launched crypto assets, volatility remains high.
Early investors taking profits could trigger a sharp pullback, with downside targets near $0.045 if selling pressure intensifies. Pump.fun (PUMP) tells a contrasting story, as it ranks among the weakest altcoins of the week. The token has declined more than 35%, currently trading around $0.00197.
Ongoing selling pressure reflects cautious investor sentiment amid broader crypto market uncertainty. Despite this weakness, technical indicators suggest a possible short-term rebound. The relative strength index has entered oversold territory, often a signal that selling momentum may be nearing exhaustion.
A recovery could see PUMP retest resistance near $0.00212 or even $0.00242, though failure to attract buyers may push the token lower toward $0.00171. Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has also gained attention after posting an 8% rally driven by asset-specific speculation rather than broader Bitcoin price movements. Market interest was sparked by rumors of a large ETH-to-BCH swap linked to ShapeShift founder Erik Voorhees, although he later denied ownership. Even so, improving money flow indicators suggest BCH could attempt a move above $593, with upside potential toward $624 if demand remains steady.
