🔥 1. How long does Altcoin Season last and when does it collapse?
Altcoin Season is the period when altcoins (coins other than BTC) increase in value more than Bitcoin. Typically, this cycle does not last too long, because:
⏳ Average duration of Altcoin Season:
• Usually lasts from 1 to 3 months in each major cycle (4 years).
• However, there may be “mini seasons” that last only a few weeks (2-6 weeks), especially in trending altcoins (memecoin, AI, DeFi, NFT…).
📉 Signs that Altcoin Season is starting to collapse:
• Bitcoin begins to increase strongly again (usually attracting capital back).
• Bitcoin Dominance rises.
• Capital begins to withdraw from junk coins and memecoins.
• Negative news appears continuously (FUD).
• The uptrend begins to weaken, volume decreases, and the peaks do not surpass the previous highs.
• Many altcoins split 2-5 times in just a few days/weeks (too hot).
💡 Note: The collapse of altcoin season can happen very quickly, sometimes within just a few days with a drop of 50-80%, especially for small coins.$BTC
