Why is ALTSEASON being delayed?
The cryptocurrency landscape has changed drastically in recent years. To get a clear picture, in the period of 2013-2014, there were around 500 tokens available. In 2017-2018, that number grew to 3,000 tokens. By 2021, the amount ranged between 300,000 and 3 million tokens. Today, in 2025, we are already at 36.4 million tokens, and projections suggest that this figure could reach 100 million in the near future.
The main problem lies in the fact that the market is extremely diluted. The major cryptocurrency exchanges are focused on listing meme tokens to attract volume and expand their user base. This has led to a situation where many retail investors buy these tokens in the hope of making quick profits, only to see their value drop by 80% or more within days. Frustration leads them to abandon the market.
In an environment where launching a token is as easy as clicking a button, it is not surprising that the quality of projects has declined. Furthermore, the largest exchanges seem to prioritize the inclusion of low-quality tokens over projects with solid fundamentals, exacerbating the situation.
In this system, the primary beneficiaries are always the same:
1. The developers of the tokens, who generate income by selling their own creation.
2. The insiders, who take advantage of insider information and hype to make profits.
3. The exchanges, which benefit from the increase in transaction volume, regardless of the quality of the projects they list.
Meanwhile, only a small percentage, approximately 1% of buyers, manage to generate real profits. On-chain data supports this reality, showing how most people who invest in these tokens end up with significant losses.
