Most new people in crypto ask:
“Why do altcoins pump after Bitcoin?”
The answer is simple: money flows step by step through the market. Let’s break it down 👇
Phase 1: Bitcoin 💰
Money first enters Bitcoin.
Bitcoin pumps hard and dominates the market.
Ethereum tries to keep up but struggles.
Phase 2: Ethereum: 🔥
Ethereum starts to outperform Bitcoin.
People begin to talk about the “flippening” (ETH overtaking BTC).
Money begins flowing into large-cap altcoins.
Phase 3: Large Caps: 📈
Big altcoins like BNB, SOL, ADA start going parabolic.
Ethereum continues to stay strong.
Some smaller coins with strong fundamentals also pump.
Phase 4: Altseason 🎉
Now the real madness begins!
Mid-caps, low-caps, even meme coins start pumping.
Almost every coin is going parabolic regardless of fundamentals.
The hype is everywhere, memes are everywhere, and the market feels unstoppable.
✨ Summary:
Money always flows in this order:
Bitcoin → Ethereum → Large Caps → Small/Meme Coins (Altseason)
That’s why patience is key — altcoins usually pump after Bitcoin has had its run.
