Altseason doesn’t announce itself with fireworks or hype threads.
It slips in quietly, almost unnoticed, while everyone is still watching Bitcoin dominate the headlines.
Look back at history:
In 2017, Bitcoin hit new highs, the media screamed “bubble,” and most people thought the party was over. Then, silently, capital started rotating. Ethereum crept up. Ripple followed. Suddenly, coins you’d never heard of were doing 10x in weeks. By the time the noise arrived, the real gains were already locked in by the patient ones.
2021 played the same script. BTC pumped, dominance peaked, boredom set in. People complained “altseason is dead.” Behind the scenes, money flowed into DeFi, NFTs, layer-1s. When the explosion finally came, it felt overnight—but it had been building for months in silence.
Today’s chart looks eerily familiar. Bitcoin dominance is high, sentiment is mixed, and most altcoins are bleeding or moving sideways. Everyone is impatient, checking prices every hour, ready to call it quits.
But that’s exactly the setup.
The quiet phase is the filter—it shakes out the noisy traders and rewards those who wait. When the shift happens, it won’t come with a megaphone. It will start with a few coins waking up, then a few more, until the whole market realizes the rotation is already underway.
So zoom out. Stay patient.
The explosion always comes—but only after the silence.
