Copper hits record high, fuelling talk of altcoin strength signal

Copper futures have hit a record high, prompting talk that the move could ripple beyond commodities into cryptocurrencies. Some market analysts cite past episodes in which copper strength was followed months later by an altcoin rally, and see the rise as a possible sign of returning risk appetite. Copper has outperformed gold this year amid supply disruptions at major mines and rising demand from data centres, AI infrastructure, electric vehicles and power grids.
