Clear Signs and Indicators of the Altcoin Season
The beginning of an altcoin season—often referred to as "altseason"—can be identified through several key indicators. One of the most obvious signs is when altcoins start outperforming Bitcoin in terms of percentage gains over a sustained period. This is often measured using the Bitcoin Dominance Index; when it drops significantly, it signals a shift of capital from Bitcoin into altcoins.
Another strong indicator is increased trading volume and market activity across multiple altcoins, not just a few major ones. Social media trends, growing interest in altcoins on platforms like Twitter and Reddit, and increased Google search volume for specific altcoins also signal rising momentum.
Furthermore, new project launches, NFT growth, and DeFi resurgence often accompany altseason. Retail investor excitement and mainstream media coverage help drive this further. When smaller-cap coins start pumping after large-cap altcoins, it's a clear confirmation.
Always combine technical analysis with market sentiment to confirm altseason before jumping in.
