<h2 id="key-points">Key Points</h2> 
<ul> 
 <li>Altcoin season may be approaching as market shifts indicate increasing focus on altcoins over Bitcoin.</li> 
 <li>Bitcoin dominance and altcoin market cap suggest a potential explosion of the altcoin sector to a $3 trillion market cap.</li> 
</ul>  
<p>Bitcoin [BTC] experienced a significant recovery in September, with its value increasing from $52.5K to $65K. This rally also had a positive impact on altcoins, as indicated by the rise of the Altcoin Season Index to July levels. </p> 
<p>Certain altcoins, particularly those in the AI and memecoin segments, saw substantial gains during this period. However, according to the Altcoin Season Index, the altcoin season was not yet in full swing. </p> 
<h2 id="signs-of-an-approaching-altcoin-season">Signs of an Approaching Altcoin Season</h2> 
<p>Despite this, there were several indicators suggesting a promising outlook for a robust altcoin season. One of these was the Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D), which has been on the rise since 2024, but faced significant resistance around the 58% level. </p> 
<p>A decrease in the BTC.D value could mean a break for altcoins to gain more momentum. Another positive sign came from the altcoin market cap, excluding BTC and ETH. According to Henrik Zeberg, Head Macro Economist at Swissblock, the altcoin sector was ready to explode to a $3 trillion market cap. </p> 
<p>Presto Research also noticed a possible shift, pointing to a rise in <a href="https://coineagle.com/price/ethereum/">ETH</a> gas prices as a sign of increasing positioning to capture potential gains from an altcoin rally. The research firm noted that ETH has outperformed BTC since the Fed pivot. </p> 
<h2 id="altcoin-market-health">Altcoin Market Health</h2> 
<p>The firm added that some speculators might be preparing to take advantage of the massive asymmetric risk profile, as most altcoins were at yearly lows following recent headwinds. The ETHBTC ratio also recovered nearly 10% and increased from a low of 0.038 to 0.042 after the Fed rate cuts. </p> 
<p>This indicated that ETH’s value gained ground relative to BTC. As a measure of the altcoin market’s health, this suggested that altcoins experienced a significant relief rally. Mark Thielsen from 10X Research also predicted a similar path for altcoins, noting a significant shift by savvy Korean and overall traders from BTC to altcoins.</p>
