【Why Aren't Altcoins Rising? It's Not That They Don't Want To, It's That Liquidity Is Weak】
To be honest, altcoins have always been on everyone's mind; we say we don't believe in them, but our wallets still hope for the altcoin season to soar.
But why hasn't it come this time? It's not because the market doesn't want to speculate, but because there simply isn't money to speculate with.
We need to understand one thing: we are currently experiencing the historical first overlap of Bitcoin halving + currency tightening in a major economy. It's like trying to strike a match only to find it has been soaked in water—liquidity is dried up, and dreams can't ignite.
This situation has been evident in the U.S. stock market for a while: once liquidity tightens, everyone rushes to cling to Apple and Nvidia; but once it loosens, small-cap stocks and growth stocks bounce back up.
The logic is the same in the crypto market—when liquidity returns, risk appetite returns, and the altcoin season will naturally follow.
But right now, projects generally control 99% of the tokens, there’s no money coming in, and it all depends on empty promises;
With liquidity lacking, talking about the metaverse, L2, and AI narratives just leaves retail investors dazed.
It's not that there isn't an altcoin season; it's just that the timing isn't right.
