Bitcoin dominance drop historically precedes capital flow into altcoins.
Improved liquidity conditions enable institutions to shift toward higher-beta assets.
Altcoin Season Index rise signals increasing rotation away from Bitcoin.
Market indicators are pointing to the potential start of Altcoin Season as soon as September. Coinbase Institutional reported that Bitcoin dominance has declined from 65% in May to around 59% in August.
Analysts noted this level has often preceded increased capital flow into altcoins. Liquidity conditions are also improving, with tighter spreads and deeper order books.
The firm highlighted that these changes allow institutions to move into higher-risk digital assets. Investor risk appetite is growing amid macroeconomic stability and potential Federal Reserve rate cuts.
More than $7 trillion held in U.S. money market funds could re-enter crypto markets. According to Coinbase Institutional, similar situations in past cycles have fueled strong altcoin rallies.
