Altcoin Season Is Here. Get Ready to See Altcoins Outperform Bitcoin by 100%+

Bitcoin Dominance now at 61.8%, expected to make way for an altcoin season. Altcoins launched in late 2024 and early 2025 are following patterns similar to the 2020–2021 cycle.

An analysis from Joao Wedson, a crypto analyst, reveals that 24 out of 57 altcoins have outperformed Bitcoin over the past two months. This is a critical metric in identifying early-stage Altcoin Seasons.

As per CoinMarketCap, the Altcoin Season Index stands at 24/100. However, this relatively low reading suggests there’s plenty of room for growth, and a sharp surge may be imminent, especially considering the U.S. inflation numbers that came in lower than expected. A surge in the index occurs when the majority of altcoins outgain Bitcoin over a 60-day period, marking a shift in capital.

Bitcoin dominance has climbed to 61.8%, approaching what many analysts believe could be a final test near the 67% level before a reversal. Historically, such a reversal is often accompanied by capital moving out of Bitcoin and into altcoins, especially mid- and low-cap digital assets with strong community and fundamental backing.

In the past few months, mid- and low-cap altcoins have outperformed BTC by over 100% in many cases. As the crypto market enters a new phase, it’s becoming increasingly clear that an Altcoin Season is not only underway but is about to amplify in June. Historical patterns, strong technical indicators, and shifting market dynamics all hint at a period of accelerated altcoin performance.

Institutional Backing to Add Fuel to the Altseason?

Adding a new layer of momentum is the growing institutional interest in Altcoin ETFs. With the success of spot Bitcoin ETFs, Ethereum ETFs, firms are now lobbying for broader altcoin-based exchange-traded products. This move would introduce regulatory clarity and drive significant new capital into altcoins like SOL, XRP, SUI, and AVAX.

Altcoins also recently experienced a golden cross, a bullish technical indicator where the 50-day moving average crosses above the 200-day moving average. This pattern often precedes major upward moves, especially when confirmed by increasing trading volumes and strong fundamentals.
