Blockchain analytics, altcoin market insights, and crypto forecasting by Joao Wedson

Joao Wedson is founder and Chief Executive Officer of Alphractal, a blockchain analytics firm that produces data-driven reports on market cycles and liquidity flows. Since 2022, Wedson has published more than 20 research notes tracking Bitcoin dominance, altcoin accumulation phases, and total value locked in DeFi. In April 2025, he predicted a window for altcoin resurgence between June and September, when Bitcoin dominance exceeded 62 percent and capital rotation signals appeared.

By July 2025, Wedson issued a warning that market conditions suggested a potential Bitcoin pullback below $65,000, while maintaining a longer-term scenario where prices could reach $140,000 if momentum held. His analysis has been featured in Cointelegraph, Coindoo, and Traders Union, and he has appeared in over 15 podcast interviews. Wedson’s audience exceeds 50,000 across social media platforms, where engagement often surpasses 5,000 interactions per forecast. With a quant-focused style and consistent public tracking of cycle indicators, Wedson has become an active voice for investors seeking structured approaches to altcoin timing and Bitcoin risk management.
