Altseason Nears as Bitcoin Dominance Hits Key Threshold

Bitcoin dominance above 60% signals altseason buildup as past cycles show sharp reversals when BTC peaks each Q4.

Historical data and chart patterns suggest Bitcoin dominance may drop toward 45% by 2025, triggering strong altcoin gains.

Falling USDT dominance below 5% hints at investors shifting from stablecoins to riskier crypto assets ahead of altseason.

Bitcoin dominance has surged past 60%, igniting widespread speculation that the next altseason may be approaching. Market analyst Ash Crypto stated on X that “Altseason is coming soon,” citing recurring Bitcoin dominance patterns similar to those in 2017 and 2021

According to him, Bitcoin’s dominance usually climbs from September to December, preceding strong altcoin rallies. As he explained, “In Q4, BTC pumps and alts pump with it in the USD value, but once Bitcoin dominance tops out, that’s when we will see ALT/BTC pairs pump hard = True ALTSEASON.”

Bitcoin Dominance Mirrors Past Cycles

The chart shared by Ash Crypto illustrates long-term dominance behavior stretching from 2017 through 2025. Each cycle showed dominance peaking between September and December, followed by a sharp drop as altcoins outperformed. Historical data reveals that in 2017, Bitcoin dominance fell dramatically after its December peak. Similarly, in 2021, dominance reversed from nearly 73% to below 40%, marking the height of altseason.

Ash’s data shows that the current Bitcoin dominance is 60.07%. A declining trendline links the previous peaks, and this level is close to a crucial support zone. In keeping with prior altseasons, the analyst predicts a possible drop near 45% domination by 2025.

Additionally, the triangle-shaped pattern on the chart indicates continued consolidation prior to a clear advance. Therefore, by mid-November, when cryptocurrencies typically begin to gain traction, market observers anticipate a potential reversal of dominance.

USDT Dominance Confirms Bullish Setup

Supporting this narrative, analyst 𝕄𝕠𝕦𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕔ⓗ𝕖 pointed out that “USDT-Dominance has been in a bearish pattern for years.” His chart shows Tether’s market dominance trending lower since late 2023, reflecting rising investor appetite for risk assets like Bitcoin and altcoins.

Moreover, the data reveals five distinct phases, including a current consolidation between 4.30% and 4.80%, with projections targeting a breakdown toward 2% by 2026. Consequently, a falling USDT dominance often signals capital rotation into cryptocurrencies.
