The Altcoin Season Index has dropped to 35, indicating the crypto market is currently not in altcoin season. The dashboard explicitly states "It is not Altcoin Season!" and shows it has been 17 days since the last Altcoin Season, which recorded a score of 76. Historically, the average gap between altcoin seasons is 197 days.
Key Developments
- Current Altcoin Season Index: 35
- Status: It is not Altcoin Season
- Days since last Altcoin Season: 17
- Average days between Altcoin Seasons: 197
- Last Altcoin Season score: 76
- Measurement window: last 90 days
A list of the top-performing altcoins over the latest 90-day period is available on the dashboard, highlighting that while select tokens have rallied, the broader altcoin market has not collectively outperformed Bitcoin.
What the Reading Means
The Altcoin Season Index is a market breadth and sentiment gauge that tracks how altcoins perform relative to Bitcoin over a rolling 90-day window. A reading in the mid-30s suggests Bitcoin has outperformed most altcoins during this period. The dashboard also references definitions for "Altcoin Month" and "Altcoin Season" score ranges, reinforcing that the current reading sits below the threshold typically associated with an altseason.
Market Impact
- The sub-50 reading points to continued Bitcoin dominance over many altcoins in recent months.
- While some outlier altcoins have posted notable gains, broad-based altcoin outperformance has yet to materialize.
- With the average interval between altseasons at 197 days, the current lull could persist unless capital rotation meaningfully shifts toward altcoins.
Looking Ahead
Traders are watching for signs that the index moves higher—such as sustained outperformance across major alt/BTC pairs and improving liquidity in altcoins. A decisive trend change would likely be reflected by the index decisively climbing toward altseason territory over the coming weeks.
