Can we really see an alt season in 2026?

This is the part most people miss.

Every major altcoin run starts the same way: liquidity flips.

Fed slows or ends QT, money finds risk again, and alts move fast.

But before that happens, the market hurts.

Support gets tested over and over.

Liquidations shake confidence.

Weak hands get forced out.

That’s exactly what we saw before the 2020–2021 alt run.

QT ended, alt market cap sat on support, fear was everywhere — then alts exploded 1,000%+.

Now look at 2025–2026.

QT is ending again.

Alt market cap is resting on multi-year support.

Liquidations are already clearing leverage.

Different scale. Same behavior.

Markets don’t reward comfort.

They scare you first, then they move.

If liquidity truly flips, this won’t be slow.

It’ll be violent — and most people won’t be positioned for it.
