Altseason Index Drops Sharply: Should Investors Worry?
Altseason Index falls from 100 to 67—signaling a potential shift in crypto market sentiment.
- Altseason Index drops from 100 to 67 in a week
- Bitcoin dominance may be rising again
- Altcoins could face short-term pressure
Altseason Index Plunges: What It Means
The Altseason Index—a popular metric that tracks when altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin—has just crashed from 100 to 67, raising questions among crypto investors about whether the current altseason is over or just taking a breather.
A perfect score of 100 last week signaled strong momentum in altcoins. But the sudden drop to 67 now suggests a cooling-off period, possibly driven by rising Bitcoin dominance, ETF-driven flows into BTC and ETH, or traders locking in profits from recent altcoin rallies.
Is the Altseason Over or Just Cooling Off?
The sharp decline in the index doesn’t automatically mean the end of altseason—but it does signal a shift. Historically, such drops are often seen when Bitcoin begins to regain market dominance, pulling capital away from smaller altcoins.
With large flows recently entering BTC and ETH through ETFs, and with macro uncertainties still present, investors may be reallocating to more established assets in the short term.
Still, it’s important to note that 67 is not a bearish level. The index is still above 50, which typically signals that altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin over the last 90 days. This means altseason may not be dead—just slowing down.
What to Watch Next
- Bitcoin Dominance: If BTC continues to attract capital, altcoins may struggle.
- Macro Events: US economic data and Fed signals can influence investor appetite for risk.
- Layer-1 and DeFi tokens: Watch how top-performing alts react—some may show resilience.
For now, the Altseason Index crash is a sign to stay cautious, not panicked. Rotations in crypto are common, and altcoin momentum could return once Bitcoin stabilizes.
