BTC Bulls, Altcoin Bears: When Will It Flip?

While Bitcoin hovers around $104K, altcoins are still falling short of expectations. This is exactly what the “1-Year Cumulative Buy/Sell Quote Volume Difference for Altcoins (Excluding BTC & ETH)” confirms.

Back in December 2024, the metric flipped positive — signaling a local top for altcoins. Since then?

It’s been downhill.

🔻 Today, the metric sits at -36 billion USD.

Which basically means:

“Altcoin investors are MIA.”

Even though Bitcoin is enjoying a bull run, altcoins are behaving like it’s still winter. Unless this metric starts rising again, expecting a full-blown altseason or altcoin FOMO might just be wishful thinking.
