🔥 In crypto, everything is cyclical. We know that after a powerful rise of BTC, an alt season usually begins - money flows into alts, and they make x's. But what if too many people are waiting for the alt season? Could it not happen or unfold differently than before?

1️⃣ Is an alt season needed now?

✅ Yes, it is needed - but not by everyone:

  • Those who have been in alts since 2021 are waiting to break even.

  • New investors want to see quick x's and meme pumps.

  • It's important for developers to revive the market to attract capital to projects.

🚫 But it's not profitable for the whales:

  • As long as BTC and ETH are growing and gathering liquidity, it is not profitable for big players to pump alts.

  • They want to squeeze out weak hands - the more people get tired of waiting and sell, the better for the whales.

🔹 Conclusion: The alt season is needed by the crowd, but big players are not activating it yet.

2️⃣ What if too many are waiting for the alt season?

💭 In 2017 and 2021, it started when people didn't expect it, they just took BTC, and then the money smoothly flowed into alts.

⚠️ The situation is different now:

  • Expectations are too high - every second person is waiting for 'like in 2021.'

  • If everyone is waiting, a pump may not happen at the right moment.

  • Perhaps the alt season will be different - not a mass growth, but selective pumps of top alts and meme coins.

🔹 Conclusion: Whales may first 'burn' the crowd's patience, and then arrange a pump when most have sold.

3️⃣ Alt season 2024: what will it be like?

📉 If BTC remains dominant:

  • Alts may not grow massively.

  • The pump will only be for strong projects (ETH, SOL, BNB, AVAX, AI tokens, Layer-2).

📈 If BTC starts to consolidate:

  • Dominance will fall → money will flow into alts.

  • Meme coins and shitcoins will start to x.

⚠️ But the market is no longer the same:

  • Meme coins and hype tokens may provide short-term spikes but not long-term trends.

  • In 2021, every shitcoin shot up; now - only selective stories.

🔹 Conclusion: The alt season may be pinpoint, not massive.

4️⃣ Conclusion: Is it worth hoping?

💡 Yes, but without rose-colored glasses.

  • If everyone is waiting, the market loves to deceive expectations.

  • Perhaps the alt season will be later or unfold differently than we are used to.

  • It's not a fact that 'any alts' will provide growth - rather, pumps will occur in certain trends.

🚀 What to do?

  • Keep an eye on trends: Memes, RWA, AI, Layer-2.

  • Don't stay in dead alts.

  • Wait for an unexpected moment. If the crowd is selling off - something is about to start.
