The post 3 Altcoins in 2026 Market That Don’t Care About Bitcoin (BTC) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In 2026, Bitcoin continues to dominate the larger crypto market cycle, but its hegemony over altcoin performance is eroding. The majority of significant assets, such as Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and Cardano, continue to move mostly in lockstep with Bitcoin, confirming its position as the market’s main source of liquidity and sentiment.

A New York judge has delayed a decision on Aave’s emergency bid to unfreeze $71 million worth of crypto tied to victims of the $293 million Kelp DAO hack, asking for additional information ahead of a new hearing in June.  Aave has sought to use $71 million in ETH that Arbitrum froze to assist with recovery efforts following the Kelp DAO hack, one of the worst DeFi hacks this year. However, US law firm Gerstein Harrow LLP filed a restraining notice at the start of May, arguing its clients have a claim to the funds. Aave then filed an emergency motion to get the funds unlocked, arguing that user liquidations and potential DeFi market destabilization could occur if the funds are not unlocked soon.    According to documents filed Wednesday in the Southern District of New York, Judge Margaret M. Garnett said Aave had not adequately outlined how “compounding losses” on user
