‘The Biggest AltSeason Will Start Next Week’ -Will Altcoins Outperform Bitcoin?

Published by

Altcoins are flashing strong signals of a potential breakout, setting the stage for what could be the most powerful Altseason yet. After weeks of consolidation, market sentiment is shifting as traders anticipate altcoins outperforming Bitcoin in the coming sessions. The bullish outlook is further supported by expectations of continued U.S. Fed rate cuts through 2025, which may inject fresh liquidity into the crypto markets. With momentum building rapidly, investors are closely eyeing major altcoins for a possible explosive price rally. 

The crypto market sentiments seem to have been shifting towards the altcoins as the BTC price volatility is less impacting the ETH price rally. The second largest token is stuck above $4,300 and trading within a tight accumulated phase. A similar pattern is seen with the altcoin market cap excluding ETH which is entering the resistance zone between $1.08T and $1.09T. The levels seem to be repeating the  previous pattern, which resulted in an 80% upswing after a breakout. 

The total market cap excluding BTC & ETH has reached the edge of the prevailing consolidation. A similar pattern was formed back in Q4, 2024, that resulted in an 80% rise, triggering a small Altseason that lasted throughout January 2025. However, the current breakout is expected to elevate the levels beyond the ATH around $1.14T. The levels are testing the resistance of the ascending triangle, beginning above the Gaussian channel, which is bullish at the moment. Besides, MACD is attempting a bullish crossover, being within the positive range, indicating a new ATH close to $2T could be on the horizon. 

When Will The AltSeason Begin?

The Federal Reserve’s expected rate cuts are fueling speculation that a massive Altseason could be on the horizon. Historically, lower interest rates encourage risk-on investing, driving liquidity into volatile assets like cryptocurrencies. While Bitcoin usually absorbs the initial inflows as a market leader, traders often rotate profits into altcoins once confidence strengthens. This cycle has repeatedly sparked explosive rallies in the altcoin market. A popular analyst, Sensei, believes the FED will cut the rates in September, October and December, which could trigger a strong Altseason. 

In the times when the rates are expected to drop, the liquidity could eventually rise. Now that the next FED meeting and rate cuts are due on September 17th, 2025, the Altseason is likely to begin somewhere around this. On the other hand, the altcoin season index has been constantly rising since the end of Q2, 2025 and is an inch close to reach 70 which may validate the beginning of an Altseason.
