$ETH Has the Altcoin Season Completely Cooled Off? Q1 2026 Is the Key Battleground for BTC
Trader Daan keeps it simple: despite relatively quiet market conditions this month, altcoins have suffered sharp declines, while BTC and ETH have shown relative stability.
In reality, many altcoins peaked as early as the beginning of 2024, followed by a prolonged downtrend. From their highs, drawdowns of 60–80% have become common, with capital steadily rotating out of altcoins. Daan emphasizes that Q1 2026 will be a critical window for Bitcoin—if BTC fails to break through during this period, the broader market outlook could turn problematic.
