#AltcoinSeasonComing Altcoin season hasn't arrived yet, according to the Altcoin Season Index, which currently stands at 16%. This means only 16% of the top 100 altcoins have outperformed Bitcoin over the last 90 days. Bitcoin's market dominance is around 57.9%, indicating investors still favor Bitcoin over altcoins.
*Key Indicators to Watch:*
- *Bitcoin Dominance*: A decline in Bitcoin's dominance below key support levels could trigger an altcoin season.
- *Ethereum's Market Performance*: A breakout in ETH/BTC could signal capital rotation from Bitcoin to altcoins, marking the start of altcoin season.
- *Regulatory Clarity*: Positive regulatory developments, such as spot ETF approvals, could benefit the broader market and potentially kickstart altcoin season.
- *Interest Rates and Quantitative Tightening*: Central banks' monetary policies, including interest rates and quantitative tightening, may impact liquidity and demand for speculative assets like altcoins ¹ ².
*Expert Predictions:*
Some experts think an altcoin boom is most likely to 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 ¹.
