Come let me explain the market in detail 👈The highlights of the story.
The altcoin revival #Altcoin begins to move: analysts point to a weakening dollar, a recovery in the copper-to-gold ratio, and the strength of Ethereum as early indicators of an upcoming altcoin season.
The fourth quarter may trigger a rally in altcoins: with the possibility of rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in September and bullish macroeconomic signals, the fourth quarter of 2025 may ignite a strong launch for altcoins.
Altcoins have undergone a harsh cycle. Bitcoin has taken center stage, dominating the scene and capital flows, while altcoin holders continue to watch their investment portfolios stagnate, or worse, bleed.
While Bitcoin continues to rise and stabilizes above $100,000, altcoins have only seen two brief spikes in March and November 2024.
However, according to crypto analyst Crypto Decoder, many unnoticed signals now suggest that a broader altcoin season may be about to begin, even if it hasn't started yet.
The altcoin season has been delayed this cycle. Only a few altcoins are pumping their funds, while the rest continue to drain Bitcoin.
We just released a new video detailing the key macroeconomic indicators, and we are looking forward to any reversal, and when our altcoins might finally pump their funds.
A weakening dollar may pave the way.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is one of the most important indicators. Crypto Decoder notes that when the dollar weakens, altcoins often gain massive momentum. In 2017, a sharp decline in the U.S. Dollar Index led to a massive 285-fold increase in the market capitalization of altcoins. In 2021, a similar move ignited a rally of 17 times.
This pattern is closely tied to U.S. monetary policy; when the Federal Reserve eases financial constraints and borrowing becomes easier, investors typically turn to higher-risk assets. Altcoins are usually the second choice, after #البيتكوين .
Currently, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) shows signs of weakening in strength, having not exceeded the 109 level. If it drops below key support levels, it could spark renewed interest in altcoins. However, Decoder warns that a real shift in Federal Reserve policy will likely be necessary before we see any sharp price movements.

Another strong indicator, albeit less well-known, is the copper-to-gold ratio. This measure reflects investor sentiment. When copper outperforms gold, it signals an increasing risk appetite in the market. According to the analyst, this ratio has just bounced back from multi-year lows and surpassed its twenty-week exponential moving average, an early sign that conditions have become favorable for altcoins, just as they did before the rallies of 2017 and 2020.
Ethereum in the lead.
Ethereum has outperformed Bitcoin in the last quarter, for the first time since the fourth quarter of 2022. With institutional inflows finally flowing in, Ethereum shows real strength against Bitcoin after years of decline. Remember, Ethereum's good performance is good news for us. I'm not ready to comment on crypto seasonality yet. 🏃
Ethereum's recent performance boosts bullish expectations. Ethereum has begun to outperform Bitcoin for the first time since late 2022. This recovery, supported by inflows exceeding two billion dollars from ETFs since May 2025, indicates increasing institutional interest. Given that Ethereum holds over 50% of the total value of decentralized finance (DeFi TVL) and boosts altcoin liquidity, its strength often leads to broader gains for altcoins.
The altcoin season may see a rise in the fourth quarter.
Although August and September may see more sideways movements, analysts believe that the real opportunity may emerge in the fourth quarter. If the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates in September, and macroeconomic indicators hold up, October may reflect the previous rises that followed the halving.
Supporting this view, analyst Michael van de Poppe notes that the altcoin season index hit its lows again in June, just as it did before previous major rallies in altcoins. With the upward cycle continuing and easing anticipated, he sees potential for much larger increases in altcoins by the fourth quarter, as happened in 2023. $BTC $XRP $SOL #FOMCWatch #BinanceHODLerLA #SECETFApproval
