Even as the overall market falters, some altcoins are setting new all-time highs. While Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen to $72,000, Hyperliquid and AI-themed coins are attracting investors' attention with a reverse rally amid strong capital inflows.

According to crypto media Watcher.Guru on June 1 (local time), the cryptocurrency market recently entered a correction phase again due to inflation concerns and rising geopolitical tensions. Bitcoin once rebounded to $82,000 but later fell to the $72,000 level as macroeconomic instability and risk-off sentiment intensified. However, some altcoins recorded new all-time highs on this day, showing a different trend from the market.

The asset showing the strongest upward trend was Hyperliquid (HYPE). According to CoinGecko data, Hyperliquid soared to $73.73 during the day, breaking its all-time high. The media analyzed that the expansion of project-level buybacks and the Hyperliquid spot ETF launched last month acted as background for the rise. Additionally, news that Goldman Sachs purchased millions of dollars worth of shares related to Hyperliquid strategies was also assessed to have stimulated investor sentiment. With this surge, Hyperliquid entered the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

The second asset to break its all-time high was LAB. LAB rose to $11.69 on this day, setting a new high. The media explained that the announcement of a new reward season linked to trading activities within the LAB app and LAB TG app acted as a catalyst for the rise. The expectation of increased rewards for trading participation was analyzed to have stimulated short-term buying.

The third player was Humanity (H). Humanity rose to $0.6885 during the day, reaching an all-time high. The media cited expectations for AI themes as the background for Humanity's rise. It was analyzed that as AI-related projects have recorded strong returns in the market in recent years, investors' FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) is once again flocking to AI-themed coins.

Ultimately, the current cryptocurrency market is not a traditional Bitcoin-centric bull market but is developing into an extremely differentiated market where funds are concentrated on specific themes and narratives. While the overall market is undergoing a correction, altcoins with specific catalysts such as spot ETFs, AI, and reward-based ecosystems are rather breaking all-time highs and continuing their independent trends.
