The cryptocurrency market has gained momentum over the last 24 hours, and traders are now looking for altcoins to watch as the weekend flows typically bring sharper movements. Some projects are showing new demand after recent updates, others are building momentum on the lists, and some are approaching levels that could determine their next trend.

This BeInCrypto-curated list highlights three sets that stand out ahead of the weekend – each for different reasons.

Keeta (KTA)

KTA has increased by approximately 36% in the last 24 hours. The rise follows Keeta's new fiat-anchor launch, which allows users to transfer money between bank accounts and stablecoins with fewer delays. This upgrade enhances real-life usage, so traders can keep a close eye on Keeta over the weekend.

On the 12-hour chart, Keeta has crossed over $0.32. The next important level is $0.36, which rejected the last push. A clean close above could open a move towards $0.43.

The breakout attempt comes with rare support from Wyckoff's volume-color indicator, which is based on simple buy and sell strength.

A green bar shows buyers with full control, a red bar shows sellers controlling the move, a blue bar shows buyers gaining control, and a yellow bar shows sellers gaining control. Keeta has pushed two strong green bars for the first time since the end of November. That change suggests that real demand supports the breakout rather than a short-term top.

If the buying continues and Keeta closes above $0.36, the path to $0.43 opens. If the bars turn blue or yellow again, profit-taking may start. In that case, $0.27 will be key support. A break below this reveals $0.21, which turns the short-term trend back to weakness.

Keeta is still one of the most popular altcoins to keep an eye on this weekend as its fundamental upgrade and increasing buying power now align with a breakout above $0.36.

Solana (SOL)

Solana has risen by about 6% in the last 24 hours, aided by steady news from the ongoing Breakpoint event. The most notable update is that JPMorgan is using Solana to arrange a tokenized commercial paper issuance. That type of institutional use case keeps interest high even as the broader map still faces hurdles. And that makes SOL one of the best altcoins to keep an eye on in the coming two days.

Between December 7 and 11, Solana formed a higher bottom level while RSI formed a lower bottom. RSI follows the rate of buying and selling. When the price rises but RSI falls, it creates a hidden positive divergence. This usually signals diminishing selling pressure even before momentum is visible on the chart.

The recovery has pushed Solana back towards $146, a level that has blocked every move since November 14. A clean daily close above this weekend would confirm strength and pave the way towards $171. Solana needs about a 5% push to test that breakout, which is well within its normal range as buyers step in.

If $146 rejects again, the pullback zone remains near $127. That level has held since December 2 and continues to act as a strong floor. A break below that weakens the setup, but as long as the hidden positive divergence is active, Solana still has a chance to test higher levels again.

For now, Solana is on the weekend watchlist as both the chart and Breakpoint news flow point to a possible attempt at $146.

Chainlink (LINK)

Chainlink has increased by about 4% in the last 24 hours. Coinbase naming LINK's CCIP as the standard bridge is significant as it could increase real usage. If more wrapped assets are moved across networks with CCIP, demand for LINK may rise over time.

An EMA overlap is forming on the 12-hour chart. EMA means exponential moving average. It is a moving average that gives more weight to recent prices. A positive overlap occurs when a smaller (20-period) EMA, in this case, rises above the longer (50-period) EMA. Traders use that transition as a simple momentum signal. It suggests that short-term buyers are gaining control.

LINK is already trading above both EMAs. This shows that buyers have control going into the weekend. If the 20/50 EMA distribution filter clears, LINK may attempt a quick push. The first level to clear costs $14.23. LINK needs about 1.2% for a 12-hour close above itself. A clean step above that opens $14.99, then $16.78.

If the distribution filter fails, the risk reverts to the downside. The key support is $13.37. A break below that would reveal $12.44 and then $11.75. Right now, the chart and Coinbase CCIP news align. That combination is why LINK is a top token to keep an eye on this weekend.
