Most people said we won't gonna experience altcoin season!

[laijsica]

How true this could be? Lot of people where speculating before that there is going to be altcoin season after bitcoin created the ATH, with hope of seeing it crossing that zone lot of people ventured into accumulating altcoin with the hope to venture into altcoin season fully without knowing that things doesn't actually works the way we think it would be. Now that the year is actually coming to an end do you still have this strong fate and believe that we would still experience the altcoin season this year or next year?

What do you think, are going to experience the altcoin this year or next year?

In the analysis of market indicators you will always see the price behavior of altcoins in line with Bitcoin. But I am continuing to buy from the current dumping phase. I am pretty sure that altcoin season will start soon. There are many lessons for new investors in the changing behavior of the market. The top alts crossed ATH just a few weeks ago but with the fall of Bitcoin price most of them have fallen and are crossing the dip for buying.

Even at the end of the year, there is no doubt that Bitcoin price growth is increasing among investors, which means that bullishness may start at the same time. I think for altcoin experience we should mostly rely on Bitcoin price and continue to buy more during bearish periods in the hope of getting high profits.

As long as BTC stays strong and keeps absorbing liquidity, most alts will remain flat, if BTC cools down later on, alts could finally have their moment.

Unfortunately current market is different. When bitcoin cools down, altcoin cools down too. Just compare the chart of altcoin market cap to bitcoin. The chart always resemble each other for this past 1 year except that altcoin is underperforming a little compared to bitcoin's chart.



From the data above, right after the 2022 altcoin rally and bitcoin started to take off with its dominance since january 2023. Altcoin just never outperform bitcoin anymore. Current altcoin market is so dry, weak, and barren.

They are right ! Alts are done ! cartels and exchanges used those scam alts to extract as much they can ! stick to btc and wait for final pump to get out

If what is meant is an altseason like the previous bullish season, where almost all altcoins rose rapidly and continued to hit massive all-time highs, then my answer is no, it will not happen.
Because we can see for ourselves that in this bullish market, altcoins that rise do not always rise simultaneously. Instead, they rise alternately between one category and another. And the term that is often used now is not altseason but Hype Narrative. Each category has its own narrative for its rise. Sometimes it starts with top-ranked altcoins with large market caps, followed by Layer 1 and 2 altcoins. Then it continues with the AI or RWA category. And finally, it usually ends with the Games and Meme token categories.

And everything can take its turn randomly. So, we can't invest in one type of narrative and expect it to rise first; that would be difficult. But if we analyze first and see which trend is starting to be talked about more, then we can start to slowly enter the narrative category that is starting to be talked about more.

We cant say for sure it we are never going to see alts season again,  but the thing with altcoins market is that, their mostly come with new hypes each time one fades off, so we shouldn't write off the possibility of a new coin making entry into the market, but although we may not see a major market highs in the year 2025 but sure we are going to see a major market break out in the positive trend both new and some few old altcoins like BNB and the rest.

BTC never got kicked out on the 1st spot. So that means alt will remain as is? Well, if you are not new in here, you can say no. But that is because BTC can still experience a down time. But that can mean that people are going on altcoins for a while. That is great though to balance things up. As of now BTC is on a dip phase still but it was unfortunate that alts didn't shine this time. Things like this happens too. It was like alts are following BTC's movement.

Everyone is truly in a black, we don't know if the altcoin season has come and gone or still a while ahead. Some say they already experienced altcoin season while many also including myself, isn't sure of anything going on in the market,

Black huh? But I think I would go for the colour red , since this is the common ones that is used and seen in the charts or price. And red is the opposite of green in this regard. On this year, Bitcoin had shown some nice gain but even the altcoins and tokens are like that too. Though maybe not only like 90 percent or more. Maybe that makes someone like you to get confused if the altcoin season had come and is now gone or not yet and still about to arrive.

Perhaps the market has not yet shown any signs of an altseason arriving in the near future, where Bitcoin's dominance is still very high. And it seems that the altcoin season is still a long way off. But it could happen next year. I personally believe that the altseason will occur when the global economy begins to recover. So big investors or even the smart money may diversify into altcoins. And it seems that currently they are still holding on to Bitcoin for the purpose of maintaining value. On the other hand market saturation may change Bitcoin's dominance. And maybe that's when the altseason will arrive. I believe we can start to predict it more accurately when there are signs of improvement in the global financial situation or even when there are movements from several big investors to altcoins. And maybe at that time the market will start to follow the smart money. So that's when the altseason will most likely occur.

Funny enough, this is part of the bitter truth: most of these exchanges are partakers of this altcoin pump and dump performed by the token issuers. That's if they are not part of the team which issues and promotes some of these altcoins. Some of the meme coins out there just came to shock off money from the market and move it out; those who try to invest with them turn out to be victims.

That's why many persons when talking of altcoins would say it's another gambling hub where the big players such as the exchanges and developers of the coins manipulate the price to lure in small investors funds then later dump the coin in the middle of all that market hype. Even if there would be an altcoins season it wouldn't be that it's gonna start with some newly developed altcoins when there have been some top performing altcoins that have always dominated the altcoins market.

Well, that's the reality. Even looking at the new tokens that continue to emerge on various layer 1 networks today, such as Solana and BNB, not a few have experienced rug pulls. But we can still see a lot of enthusiasm from crypto users in hunting for new tokens on these two networks. This actually helps the parent coins, SOL and BNB, grow with better gains in this bullish market. Because SOL and BNB managed to hit all-time highs (ATH) during this bullish season. However, the downside is that liquidity in the market has decreased because many have lost money trading on DEXs with new altcoins or tokens that keep appearing on those networks. Therefore, achieving an altseason has become more challenging. However, this is not the primary reason why an altseason has not emerged. The main issue is that there are now so many altcoins emerging, each with their own advantages and dedicated communities. This has led to market capitalization being more evenly distributed across the market, creating less hype than before. Additionally, traders are now more inclined to trade in the futures market rather than the spot market. This is another factor we must consider.

Altcoins are heavily manipulated just like you said. Those who have big money practically dictate what the price will be that is why the term "pump and dump" is a common phenomenon in altcoins. They can stir up hype of some sorts on certain altcoins and people will join them like headless mob and accumulate lots of it until they decide to dump it on those they deceived to buy their altcoins. The one way of avoiding falling for these scammers is to concentrate in Bitcoin and only buy altcoins with very tiny fraction of the capital so that incase the worst happen with the investment.

While you shouldn't listen to anyone. If you are talking about altcoin summer or season? No. People who accumulated altcoins are bag holders now, unless they start to sell it at loss.

Just look how altcoins have behaved after bitcoin peaked in the past. It's going to be a blood season if anything. And it's only going to get worse for a year or two. There might be some bounces back to the bottom, as market's don't just go one way without bumps, and those bumps might seem like big percentage numbers, but don't let them fool you. Remember that you need 900% increase from -90% drop to get back where you were.

So if you want to make profit, maybe wait 2 years when they are bottomed out and buy then.

Second, new coins come up like literally every day while money in the market is finite. People like rotate and abandon the older project that they consider already have no potential. Project like TIA, OSMO, and any non EVM blockchain is literally getting abandoned right now. I don't expect there will be any altcoin season anymore for them except if miracle happens like what happened to XMR and ZEC.

This actually makes me draws a closer look at the coin above you mention, Have been having it in mind to hold ZEC (Zcash) which if I does since then till now I could had ended up accumulating enough profits from this coin, and be sincere I don't now how sudden it became in terms of price changes or whether its total supply was reduced or shutdown as the rise of this coin lately is something very shocking which If I was told it would have a great changes I wouldn't had believe it till date, but now look were we are now currently as the market has made tremendously changes within the shortest interval.

I still believe that altseason will arrive, but I'm not 100% confident. Considering the need to reduce the investment portion in altcoins and focus more on Bitcoin. With altcoin movements becoming increasingly difficult to detect, many people inevitably wait too long and eventually give up. This is perfectly normal, especially after holding for too long. They'll likely become frustrated and opt for stop loss orders.

That is one Major problem with altcoins, no one can know for sure which one will do the magic and of course you can not be able to have it all that is in the market because they are numerous.

It is reasonable to put more value in Bitcoin than in altcoins without cheating, because Bitcoin can survive in the long term and one difference with Bitcoin and altcoins is that Bitcoin doesn't promise to give ROI in the short term and this will require more patience and while we see a lot of people focusing more on altcoins for quick profit even when they know that they are not trustworthy.

There are many factors that actually cause altcoins not to gain a strong enough position and the altseason does not happen again in this cycle.
Altcoin liquidity is moving more to Bitcoin and now more new altcoins are emerging, thus creating more panic as some altcoins start to go undeveloped and become dead projects.

Only the top altcoins are able to survive and still follow the current price of Bitcoin, but it will also take more struggle, But there will be a time when the altseason will start again

The Altcoin Season Index in the last 90 days shows that the Bitcoin season is stronger than the altcoinseason,
It takes more encouragement for altcoins and stable Bitcoin prices to go smoothly, but if Bitcoin continues to be dumped and more FUD emerges then the market will remain bearish.

[nelson4lov]

I kept believing that altcoin season is season despite how rough the market has been for altcoins in the last two years of this bull market. But it's a wrong conviction to have. I believe the days we had full blown alt seasons like in 2021 are long gone and we won't see times like that again because altcoins today bring very little value to the table and are mainly maximum extraction vehicles.

[Ivystar5]

Altcoins season now sounds like and over expectations from the market because bitcoin has got it's all time high and altcoins didn't till this time so the hope of seeing it next year is very little and even more less this year infact 2025 is a wrap nothing is going to happen again this year, it's over for altcoins maybe mid 2026 they could be lucky to see a little increase but not much of it.

[laijsica]

There are many factors that actually cause altcoins not to gain a strong enough position and the altseason does not happen again in this cycle.

The reason for the low price of altcoin being a barrier to becoming strong enough is the low progress of the price of Bitcoin. You will see the several time the moment Bitcoin pumps, the altcoin indices that are at a high level start to rise.

Altcoin liquidity is moving more to Bitcoin and now more new altcoins are emerging, thus creating more panic as some altcoins start to go undeveloped and become dead projects.

I agree with you that most of the dead altcoin liquidity is being moving to Bitcoin. Most investors make this decision. They buy in the hope of getting high profits and soon realize their mistake and start Bitcoin. My own experience and I have taken this strategy myself. If I had not sold at a loss from a greedy project, I would have lost more.

Only the top altcoins are able to survive and still follow the current price of Bitcoin, but it will also take more struggle, But there will be a time when the altseason will start again

I think that the top level altcoin liquidity will gradually moving to Bitcoin, so there is some uncertainty about the altseason. There are already a significant number of projects waiting for their last breath and this is an important signal for every trader.

The Altcoin Season Index in the last 90 days shows that the Bitcoin season is stronger than the altcoinseason,
It takes more encouragement for altcoins and stable Bitcoin prices to go smoothly, but if Bitcoin continues to be dumped and more FUD emerges then the market will remain bearish.

There is always a mixed reaction in the market. You need to be able to analysis the market and understand that market pulse because the more experience you gain, the more likely you are to make a profit. The 90 day indicator you have shown is a clear indication that we should be prepared for any future market situation.

[Dunamisx]

What do you think, are going to experience the altcoin this year or next year?

As i already know, this year is gone for altcoins season, maybe the next one which is 2026 could be the stipulated year for them, because we had bitcoin season all through this year and we had some interesting time with the market performance, even though the end of the year does not mean the end of the bull market for bitcoin, as we have to be more speculative with the way the market is performing, so that things will be more considerable for your profits when we get the right time for each season.
