Noticed an interesting movement in the market — the altseason index has already reached 71 out of 100, and this is clearly not the ceiling.
I didn't pay much attention to this indicator before, but now I realize it really helps to understand what's happening with altcoins.
The principle is simple: if the altseason index is below 25, Bitcoin dominates; from 25 to 75, it's a mixed stage; and above 75 — it's already a full-blown altseason.
We are currently in an active phase, and over the past three months, this indicator has been steadily increasing.
Altcoin market capitalization is also catching up, confirming that money is indeed flowing into altcoins, not just sitting in Bitcoin.
It's clear that the Bitcoin season phase is already behind us; the market has clearly shifted.
Investors are starting to look more actively at altcoins, and many tokens are moving much faster than the main coin.
The altseason index indicates there’s still room for growth — the extreme is 90–100, so altcoins could potentially continue to soar.
But here’s the main thing to remember: during such periods, corrections come hard.
There can be +50% in a week, followed by -30% in a couple of days.
So if you’re already in, do so wisely and with risk management.
The altseason index shows good potential, but volatility is its constant companion.
