Altcoin season has begun as Bitcoin dominance fades, mirroring past cycles where investors rotate into higher-growth digital assets.
Charts from 2015 to 2025 show consistent patterns of capital shifting from Bitcoin to altcoins as risk appetite and adoption expand.
Market signals suggest altcoins may soon outperform Bitcoin as TOTAL2 charts and oscillators confirm a surge in alternative crypto strength.
Crypto markets are shifting fast, and analysts say altcoin season has officially started. Multiple charts now confirm a major rotation is underway. Bitcoin's dominance is fading as capital flows into smaller, high-growth digital assets. This trend mirrors historic patterns seen in 2017, 2020, and now 2025.
According to analyst El Crypto Prof and trader Merlijn, the latest market data shows that altcoin momentum is growing and that the Bitcoin season is nearing its conclusion. The cryptocurrency boom-bust cycles from 2015 to 2025.
These charts show that altcoin seasons come following early rebounds led by Bitcoin. Every cycle starts with Bitcoin taking the lead, followed by a spike in altcoins as investor risk tolerance increases.
