Unlike previous bull market cycles, Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) is no longer the sole factor in determining the start of the altcoin season. Some analysts even suggest that the altcoin season is <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/altcoin-season-not-dependent-on-bitcoins-dominance\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">no longer dependent on Bitcoin dominance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, during past altcoin seasons, investors and holders rotated their profits between Bitcoin and altcoins. This time, the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/cryptoquant-ceo-predicts-bitcoins-next-big-move\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">CryptoQuant CEO<\/a> suggests that even stablecoin holders move the market, favoring altcoins more than BTC and directly entering positions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-701325\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/a_68f7e3.png?resize=1024%2C584\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"584\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Yu\u2019s chart shows that altcoin volume on CEXs has exceeded that of Bitcoin by 2.71x based on the 90-day Moving Average (MA). Despite this increase, the CryptoQuant CEO warns that the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/countdown-to-altcoin-season\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">rally set to follow the altcoin season<\/a> will be selective, and not all altcoins may benefit.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During the last bull run, the same event occurred, where only the most prominent coins, with proper utility, robust community, and a grand narrative, skyrocketed. On the other hand, low-cap altcoins experienced an increase, however, not as explosive as the ones recorded by coins like Solana, Cardano, and more.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Based on Yu\u2019s analysis the Bitcoin dominance no longer defines an altcoin season; rather, the trading volume does. Historically, a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoins-market-dominance-soars-to-3-year-high-is-this-the-end-of-altcoin-season\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">rise in BTC.D<\/a> is seen as a deterrent to an altcoin season as the market is supposedly more interested in Bitcoin. Conversely, a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-market-dominance-slows-down-is-altcoin-season-here-already\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">decline in Bitcoin dominance<\/a> is an indication of a shift in the market\u2019s sentiment toward altcoins, signaling the possible onset of the altcoin season.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/WDlTz9Jd\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"883\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Analyst Forecasts A Final Market Decline Before Altcoin Season\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>While the start of an altcoin season could alleviate current <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-outperforms-as-altcoins-struggle-key-metrics-describe-a-strong-divergence\/amp\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">bearish pressures on altcoins<\/a> in the market, uncertainty still looms about whether this highly anticipated and recurring historical trend will occur in this bull cycle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A crypto analyst, identified as the \u2018Alternative Bull\u2019 has<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/alternativbull\/status\/1893072995645575321?s=46\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"> projected<\/a> a final decline before the potential start of an altcoin season.
