#AltcoinSeasonLoading Altcoin season doesn't seem to be loading just yet. According to the Blockchain Center's Altcoin Season Index, it's currently a "Bitcoin Season" with a score of 24, indicating that Bitcoin is outperforming altcoins. Similarly, CoinMarketCap's Altcoin Season Index shows that only 16% of the top 100 altcoins have outperformed Bitcoin over the last 90 days, with Bitcoin's market dominance at around 62.7%.¹ ²

To determine if it's altcoin season, investors look for signs such as:

- *Increased Altcoin Dominance*: Altcoins collectively gaining prominence in the cryptocurrency market.

- *Rapid Price Appreciation*: Altcoins experiencing significant price increases, often outpacing Bitcoin's growth.

- *FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)*: Overall market sentiment becoming bullish, driven by optimism about altcoins' potential returns.

Some experts predict the next altcoin season might start in late 2025, especially if Bitcoin's influence weakens. Until then, traders are focusing on niche opportunities like meme coins or presale tokens with high staking rewards.

Keep an eye on market trends and adjust your strategies accordingly. Remember to research thoroughly, diversify your portfolio, and time your entries and exits wisely to minimize risks and maximize gains.
