The altseason is a period when most altcoins (all cryptocurrencies except Bitcoin) significantly increase in price, often outpacing BTC in growth rates. Traders have long awaited a new altseason, but will it come in 2025?
After the Bitcoin halving in April 2024, many analysts expected active market growth. Indeed, Bitcoin reached its all-time high, but altcoins mostly remained 'asleep'. The situation is complicated by regulatory risks: the SEC is attacking DeFi projects, and the US is moving towards stricter regulation of the crypto market.
Technically, the market capitalization is preparing for rotation. If Bitcoin consolidates, investors may start looking for greater profits in altcoins — this is how an altseason begins. The most promising sectors are L2 solutions, AI tokens, RWA, and the Solana ecosystem.
2025 has every chance of becoming the year of a major altseason, especially in the second half, when institutional investors will be ready to take more risks. But it is important to remember: altseason is not 'magic', but a result of capital flow. It will happen when the market is ready for it.
Keep an eye on BTC dominance, trading volume, and trends — these signals will indicate when a real altseason begins.
