ALT

Minigiant2709

This is the way. ALT season will not really start until Bitcoin is finished

KillsOverWin

I think we all believe that bitcoin is here to stay. So if u have the patience and dont need the money rightaway, it dosent matter if u cash out on btc, because it Will eventually go up again. So my strategy is to swap my ALT's to btc when i have a decent profit (if i dont need the money). Or Else just hold the btc and some stables so you can reinvest or cash out if u need the money

Bitcoin dominance is rising: it feeds on the ALT market in times of uncertainty. Bitcoin is called ‘King’ for a reason.

All ALT Coin will go down more and more 👍🏻💯

GabeSter

* ATOM / BTC at a new ATL * ALGO / BTC at a new ATL * **and... BTC is still at 62K.** Some people were telling me on my post yesterday - That ALT/BTC charts are disingenuous. What those people still don't realize is that if BTC continues to retrace lots of ALTS will be falling beneath their recent bear market lows.

conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

Yeah, so do I, a huge chunk of my 2023 income came from airdrops, specifically Q4. I went stupid hard spamming tx’s all of 2023 and made really good money with Celestia, its platforms and Solana defi protocols. I’ve recently shifted my focus back to trading shitcoins. I mean i’m still farming, just not as hard. I secured a 3400 $TNSR allo and a ~5300 $W allo within the last week myself, with Parcl and Kamino being right behind it. I’ve been farming zkSync, Skroll and LayerZero for about 16 months now too so hopefully soon? And hopefully they don’t fuck it up. I’ve been restaked in EigenLayer since June of last year too, which this is may just be my biggest of all time. Right now i’m farming MarginFi, Elixir, Ambient, Mode, deBridge, Berachain, Kelp, Orbiter, Renzo, Zircuit, Ekubo and maybe a few others? I’d have to look at my spreadsheet to keep track lol. None of this is free money though. You spend money on fees and u hope to make back and then some. The airdrop game is also getting saturated as fuck and the allocations are starting to be worse and worse due to overfarming and whales getting involved now. (OMNI, ALT, etc). This is why i’ve shifted back to shitcoins. The point of my reply was that this kid doesn’t know shit about crypto and is looking for easy, fast money. He has no business farming airdrops. Could u image navigating the airdrop space with zero crypto knowledge whatsoever? While I think he’s on a crash course for losing money regardless, I wanted to keep it real with him anyway.

Ashamed_Moment_2477

So the complete ALT market lost 15-20% yesterday….with minor exceptions

matt11126

Okay ? Now zoom out, BCH is up 21% during the last month, BTC is down 7%. It really depends on what ALT you're talking about, the ones that have an actual use still outperform BTC on a longer time scale. I mean look at SOL it's still up 500% within the last year, BCH is up 302%, BTC on the other hand is up 118%. Now meme coins, that's where the real blood bath is. ALTS, even if they do drop extremely heavy, usually rebound as they have a use and are more credible. Meme coins... Once the FOMO HYPE MOON crew realizes they lost 50% of their investment they panic sell, and they never reinvest into that coin again.

Maleficent_Sound_919

Did you hold BCH at 0.2846 and sold it for BTC? Like who gives a flying fuck about BTC/ALT It's about making money but you probably still think BTC will be the world currency Go away newbie

Important_Table6125

ALT season will come.

ImmediateShape4204

Who'd have thought DOGE would be the strongest ALT of them all, still over 17 cents.

GabeSter

>Many alts goes up disproportionately when Bitcoin gets 5-10% but the same goes when it’s down: most alts goes 20-30% down when Bitcoin goes down 5-10% Maybe in an ALT season, but the **majority of alts haven't gone up significantly against BTC.** When BTC goes up 5-10%... Yes a handful have, but the majority are continuing to significantly underperform Grandpa BTC. If the current trends hold ALTS better pray BTC goes straight to 100K after the halving. If BTC dumps I imagine alts will lose an insane amount of marketcap.

biba8163

This is why long term every ALT loses value against BTC. - LTC's BTC high was .04792 in late 2013. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $3,185 - NameCoin BTC high was .0145 on late 2013. It kept up with BTC, the price would be $963 - Peercoin BTC high was .00895 on early 2014. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $594 - ZCash BTC high was 2.2635 on late 2016. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $150,466 - XRP BTC high was .00022465 in May 2017. If it kept up with BTC , the price would be $14.93 - ETH BTC high was 0.15 on June 2017. If it kept up with BTC , the price would be $9,971 - BCH BTC high was 0.14 on August 2017. If it kept up with BTC , the price would be $9,786 - IOTA BTC high was .000257 on January 2018. It it kept up with BTC, the price would be $17..01 - Vechain BTC high was 0.00000755 on January 2018. It it kept up with BTC, the price would be $0.50 - NEO BTC high was .01538 on January 2018. It it kept up with BTC, the price would be $1,022 - ADA BTC high was 0.00007382 on January 2018. It kept up with BTC, the price would be $4.91 - ALGO BTC high was 0.00031342 on June 2019. It kept up with BTC, the price would be $21.91 - ChainLink BTC high was 0.001582 on August 2020. It kept up with BTC, the price would be $110

biba8163

Guys, give it a few more ALT Seasons and shitcoins will catch up with BTC - LTC's BTC high was .04792 in late 2013. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $3,185 - NameCoin BTC high was .0145 on late 2013. It kept up with BTC, the price would be $963 - Peercoin BTC high was .00895 on early 2014. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $594 - ZCash BTC high was 2.2635 on late 2016. If it kept up with BTC, the price would be $150,466 - XRP BTC high was .00022465 in May 2017.

It kept up with BTC, the price would be $110

Legitimate_Cry_5194

Thanks for the high effort answer, you explain your views very clearly. We have a pretty common way of dealing with crypto, i also trade pairs, loyal only to BTC and the final destination of all this stacking from pair to pair trading is inceased stack of sats(or whole BTC's) and of course locking fiat profits from time to time. I traded my SOL(bought 2 big chunks at 35$ and 14$) for BTC at 0.00002832, worked out pretty well as i am sure you understand. ETH is my main concern rn since i have a pretty big stack, intention is trade it for BTC, but not @0.050. ETH/BTC is sitting in life support around 0,050 for months now and i think my 0.070 target will severely test my patience, but i can deal with it, i am not an emotional or short term player, i bought SOL at 15$ after all😂. Solana seems to have the momentum and of course high usage as you very well said, i am hesitant to trade ETH or BTC back into SOL though. I rarely trade BTC for anything else than ETH(and that's a rarity) and ETH is severely underperforming for the time being to concider trading it for SOL, lots of things can go very wrong very fast with any ALT, even with what seems now as the safer bet other than alpha crypto and alpha alt. What's your take on the BTC price action? It won't surprise me if this thing just consolidates for months like it did in 2020 or 2023(both until Q4, covid crash notwithstanding), but i can't see it doing so HERE, at the ATH. It seems odd and i believe a move is coming sooner rather than later. Do you think the price action we see is 1) bullish consolidation near ATH's until the next leg up and the definite shattering of the 2021 ATH or 2) Bearish repeated rejections of the attempts at definitely leaving the 69K ATH behind, leading to the real pullback that we haven't yet seen for almost a year?

3sides2everyStory

> What are your thoughts about ETH/Alts/Altseason? I try to form my opinions on data as best I can (I'm just a dope on the internet) and my opinions on ALTs usually conflict with the tribal wish-casters and cult members in this sub. I think ALT season will happen as expected but I think it will come with a lot of surprising disappointments. I think a lot of the ETH Alts will disappoint this cycle. I also think a lot of the big, promising names from past cycles will disappoint as well. We're 15 months off of the cycle bottom and into the uptrend. If an ALT is still 85-95% away from it's ATH I expect it will struggle at best. I sold most of my big-name alts a while ago. I hold a fair amount of ETH but I've been shrinking my position (I do a lot of pair trading). I'll hold a good amount of ETH because it's a safe bet to go up. But ETH may take years to realize its promise. The fact that it requires L2s makes it complicated and problematic. It's expensive and cumbersome to use (I fucking hate using it). It may get better someday but my money won't wait around. I follow the users and the money flow. For all of its problems, Solana is winning the users and earning revenue. It's also getting the attention of big players because of usage metrics. I Hold ETH and a good amount of SOL but SOL's market cap is only about 20%-ish of ETH's. That gap will close simply because of usage metrics. They will both go up but I think SOL will do better on a percentage basis. I pair trade between ETH/SOL to increase both positions and at some point, I'll probably swap all or most of them for BTC. I'm not loyal to any investment. > Do you think that BTC combined with the ETF'S will dampen their price appreciation? I think the vast majority of people buying Bitcoin ETFs are not interested in ALTs. They want digital gold as a store of value. BlackRock's customers don't know or care about ALGO, ADA, LINK, MATIC, etc.. Different users, different investors. Larry Fink says his customers' interest in Ethereum ETF's are significantly lower than Bitcoin ETFs. If Ethereum ETFs do get approved I expect ETH will pump but the impact won't be the same. TLDR; I think ALT season will pump as expected with some surprising disappointments. This cycle I'm concentrated in BTC, ETH and SOL. I pair trade between them to grow my stacks. When the market gets frothy I'll swap most everything into BTC and cash, and buy the dips during the next bear. I do my best to follow the data. My money isn't loyal to any coin except Bitcoin

ThinCrusts

Kind of expected if you think about it.. lots of alts get their volume from people playing Alt<->BTC and presumably over leverage based on that ALT/BTC chart. BTC corrects, the longs get liquidated and alts are forcibly sold.

thec4nman

The ALT season most of you are waiting on will never happen, the reason is because your coins are dead, and died in 2021.

trucker-123

Yup. I was debating with someone here who believed it was time for an ALT run. That person also believed that other alts would soon get their ETFs from Blackrock, Fidelity, etc. I had to drill it into this person that aside from BTC, the only other cryptocurrency that may get an ETF in the foreseeable future was Ethereum. And I read that even the Ethereum ETF may get pushed back to 2025 or 2026. The other alts are probably not going to get an ETF anytime soon. Blackrock, Fidelity, etc, are not going to waste the time and energy putting up an ETF for other alts with a much lower market cap and much lower volume. Blackrock, Fidelity, etc. are interested in the cryptos with the biggest market cap and biggest volume, which would be Bitcoin. Ethereum has enough market cap and enough volume for Blackrock to pursue an ETF for it, but aside from Ethereum, I have not heard of credible news of Blackrock pursuing other ETFs for other coins.

Additional_Zebra_861

20 years in tech is like eternity. Most likely none of current coins will exist. Even BTC has expected lenght of life just another 15 years based on Lindy effect theory. AI will reshape everything in the next 10 years. There will be completelly different technologies, and decentralized networks that have much much more utility than current crypto. We will likely see a tech that is way superior to ETH/Solana etc in next 5 years. ETH is still an alt, and better tech that can drive organic adoption faster can easily dethrone it. BTC will come into irrelevance the moment when some ALT coin dethrone it by market cap and actual organic mass usecase. There is no point in investing into the worst possible crypto tech, which BTC is, if it is not a king anymore. Thinking BTC is like gold or even better is nuts. There are only 8 precious metals and never will be more. There is no competition for gold in metal aternatives. Bitcoin on the other hand is attacked dailly by new alternatives. Chance that it can survive on top 1 for next 15 years is very slim. So is chance, that current alts with their tech could survive competition from next generation of decentralized projects.

RETh5

Who's got any ALT wlltz running still? Hahaha

Angustony

When bitcoin is over ATH again, cash them all in. No later, or you'll be an even sorrier bag holder next bear winter. I traded all mine (only half a dozen or so) straight for bitcoin somewhere around the bottom and accepted the losses. Of course bitcoin has recovered massively while they have failed to recover much at all, so in hindsight that was a good move. May be a similar good move for you today. It would be my play. Don't forget to knock your losses off your ALT gains to see a true picture of the value of gambling on the shitcoins. Compare the figures to where you'd be if you'd just bought bitcoin in the first place. You can now appreciate the advice most of us ignored to just go with bitcoin. It's a right of passage thing, most of us have been there.

drc4m

I feel the same exact way right now. ALT pump missile incoming. The day I started making money/sats with this garbage was the day I did the exact opposite what I felt/thought.

ralphertonium

Thats now how cycles work man. ALT season hasnt even began yet. if you are new to crypto just wait for alt. halving happens first every cycle. ALT season is upon us!!!

Staxu9900

With 500BTC it’s not a big problem, you don’t need ALT coins. Hire some deposit boxes, keep seeds there, no need to think about it.

Which-Occasion-9246

It is great to look at the past to try to predict the future, but... does this model take into account the unique circumstances of this cycle run? I don't think that the circumstances of having reached 69k last cycle and this cycle are completely different. - The US BTC ETFs acquiring over 450,000 bitcoins - BlackRock educating its sales people on BTC ETFs - The Hong-Kong SEC will approve 20+ BTC ETFs next month - London exchanges getting ETNs - GBTC outflows will slow down and stop in estimated maximum 2 months - 150 billion MorganStanley to approve BTC ETFs on their platform How do you factor-in these in models like this? This ATH is very different to 2021's ALT when the bull market was truncated by FTX and other bad actors in the cryptospace.

Funnellboi

This sub is absolutely clueless when it comes to ALT coins and low cap coins, they think coins in the top 10-20 is good investments, they still talk about ADA for fucks sake.

I understand that Bitcoin is the only one that has real world time and energy backing it. Bitcoin is the only one that has true value. I do occasionally gamble at casinos and I view ALT coins the same way

ImmediateShape4204

Best ALT to hold is the one and only DOGE.

shadowmaking

Yep, that's when I did my last big degen into AVAX, SOL, and NEAR. No more crypto buying for me, this bull run. Now it's just sitting back and dca'ing out as it gets towards my targets. From here I think I can make more getting some GPU's and mine the rest of the year. Then see if the FOMO jacks up the prices again for GPU's. Free crypto over the year and a profit selling my GPU's next year sounds pretty good. I expected more comments about the idea that this bull run is different from any other, and if retail buyers don't flood in at some point, the "ALT season" will be more of a whisper than a roar.

Formal-Drawer1832

With Bitcoin is unlikely you will make multiple hundreds or thousands of percent at this point. You should better invest in promising ALT coins more volatile, understanding also they are more risky.

BagHolder9001

ALT Time?

rsa121717

The XRP ruling was not black and white; you cant just pick one side of it and throw it onto every altcoin out there lol. >There will be another alt season, which will be very mild, but there is DEFINITELY going to be an ALT MELTDOWN. Sure, just end off with a completely unfounded claim. Cherry on top

parakite

Eth whitepaper/yellow paper was first released in 2013. They had their ICO in 2014, if I am not wrong. So pretty much, its 10+ year old 'project'. And yes, lot of eth fans will now jump in and say that 'eth' ecosystem is HUGE, has gazillion projects. Yes, if you start looking at eth projects, and spend a day with each, then you could spend your whole life in all the eth 'projects' What what are these projects? Are any of them really any useful? Absolutely not. In 10+ years, eth is still looking for something useful to do. There is absolutely no need for a computer-on-blockchain that ethereum pretends to be. That's just about ethereum. Look at the coin which was 3rd in rankings for many years, XRP: a court has ruled that xrp sales by Ripple in 2013 and later to institutions was a security sale. How clear can you get than that? Take the hint, that all coins with ICO's are securities, including xrp and ethereum. There may be another alt season, which will be very mild, but there is DEFINITELY going to be an ALT MELTDOWN. And if you're smart, you'd exit alts before that.

cmer

This 10000x times. I built some family members a crypto portfolio in 2018. Mostly BTC and ETH, but also some "moonshots" including Cardano, Vechain, Stellar, and Icon that had the potential to increase their return. The goal was for them to mostly benefit from the blue chips while having a few lottery tickets in the mix. My rule was simple: park money there for 10 years. Don't even look at it. Assume you lost everything and we'll look at it again in 10 years. Well. That didn't work. They watch the portfolio performance weekly and they're default unhappy. Even when they're making money, because the returns are never enough. In the last bull run, some alts in their portfolio significantly outperformed BTC and ETH. They were happy and thought THEY were geniuses. Then it all dumped, unhappy again. Now BTC and ETH is pumping, and ALT season hasn't come yet, so they're not happy because the portfolio is underperforming BTC, and they can't understand why they aren't making more money. It's just been a frustrating experience always having to answer to their emotions and questions, and telling me how stupid Bitcoin is. They literally have no clue about this asset class and treated like a "can't lose casino". I made them tens of thousands of dollars, but they expected millions overnight. Completely outsized expectations. It's not worth the pain. Don't try to help people.

Hunkmaster-Next

Went with ALT thanks

kanzie_blitz

Get me the manager…please! Was promised ALT bull run!

Hondo_Bogart

My only concern is that with more and more Bitcoin being locked up in ETFs, doesn’t that reduce the amount left for “retail” who traditionally move it into ALTs for the ALT season pumps. Could we see Bitcoin keep rising but ALTs never hitting their old all time highs?

jirachang2

My average DOT is 50 dollar, i buy at the time when they introduce staking for vote Now is still down like 80%, ALT season not yet start = not bubble yet, dont panic

Zoom about on the ALT graphs, that is NOT alt season. BTC dominance still is at 50s I don’t get it

dogemikka

BiTCOIN NOWADAYS will behave according to NORMAL Financial Cycles, not having a life of its own. So we MUST acknowledge that we are nearing the end of QUARTER 1. For traditional INVESTORS we are coming to an end of the 2024 Price Rally and will enter that Interval where Everyone (institutional and private investors) will Rebalance Their PORTFOLIOS and MOST LIKELY, given the strong surge in prices, will take PROFITS on the Gains of 2024. 31/3/2024 is also the end of the Fiscal Year in Japan , like 31 december for us. I suspect that nearing end of March and Beginning of MAY, there will be a lot of distribution (selling of assets) that will mark a TOP, and in MAY failure to rise further will increase selling that will trigger a CORRECTION until END JUNE/JULY. So, the eventual last WAVE UP before distribution, will be STRONG and SHORT LIVED (2 weeks time).How do we know? Looking at BITCOIN the last 2 tops lasted 1 month (April could be the time for it). If next 2 days, today included, the price closes above ALL TIME HIGHS of 2021, we most likely will see BUYING and my CHART says we have ROOM to 80,000 , if that breaks then 110,000 . Less likely but I leave it open because as I said we have until end of MARCH. However, most PERFORMANCE will be done by ALT COINs. Rather than buying BITCOIN here I would buy ALT COINS, especially those left behind. For 3% gain in Bitcoin an ALTCOIN will give you 12% gain. However BUYING with the knowledge that you must take Profits in April while the Top is in the BUILDING. ALSO Start looking for TAKE PROFITS on all YOUR CRYPTOS. Which you may Buy BACK in JULY. REMEMBER 2021: it did exactly that pattern I just described because it was the CRYPTO ADOPTION by FINANCE PROFESSIONALS. And what is feeding the price rise now is CERTAINLY NOT the early adopters BUT aggressive FINANCE PROFESSIONALS (Hedge Funds and Investment Banks) + since 2024 the small traditional investors via ETFS REMEMBER what I wrote end 2023? THIS is the last ADOPTION PHASE by the "masses". After this phase BTC will become a nirmal asset with normal performance. The potential TOP is 100,000 to 150,000. Obviously you will read everywhere wishful emotional analysis that we are going to 250,000. Stick to LOGIC, TECHNICAL ANALYSIS and FINANCIAL CYCLES. Extract from my analysis.

Spellmonger117

Successful isn’t the same as “the next big thing” which based on OPs brief Ralfs brief thesis I take to mean 16 yos screaming about it on Twitter and Jakepaul wearing a dogecoin cap for his PPV with Mike Tyson. There’s plenty of successful ALT projects.

optitmus

in 2017 people desperately did research and DYOR on promising ALT project, then those projects got dumped into oblivion in the bear market that followed, I think retail realises now this is a giant casino and fundamentals mean sweet FA so just ape into whatever going up now.

Duzand

Bro if your ALT hasn't recovered yet there's a good chance you need to look elsewhere.

Ralfsalzano

BTC liquidations = the start of ALT season 

Financialfreedom4

It’s all the so called experts who have been locked in for a few years and have now sold expecting the price to drop but guess what it’s not happening. They probably put all there money in ALT’s thinking it’s always the same but again it’s not happening

Tiberius_281

it's to early for ALT wait after halving as usual. We need retails to come

PeanutCapital

In the 2020 bull run I locked in profit during the first 20+ percent dip and got out of BTC. Kept some others. It was painful to watch BTC keep going and roughly triple from there but it wasn’t wife changing sums anyway and I still had a tiny 5 figure ALT coin bet to ride. I think the price will be back at 100k in 2026 so you can probably jump back in and still 10x from there anyway. Or war in Europe expands suddenly and the price dips 30 percent for 2 days. You’ll have opportunity’s if your view changes.

SixtAcari

This. Though it's not really a true, as for ALT season you need to wait even more. But 1. Alt potential and RR is much higher 2. They weigh less and easier to pump 3. They affected by trends and liquidity flow. So it's just stupid not to use whole cryptomarket and stick only to BTC. It's like investing only in Google and missing out on whole S&P 500.

Rube777

DNT, GRT, UNI, ZRX, CGLD, ANKR have all gone up over 100% in the last month, and I have a bunch more that are +50% in the last month… I don’t know what you guys are waiting for, or what you expect to see or not see on reddit, but ALT gains are here for me!

Cypto_Spaniard

Man, for God's Shake, I don't know why you keep insisten on "it is late to buy now" , it is true, I know that and I told you so, but eben if there are lot of coins who went high does not mean that we are in ALT Season, BTC climbed too much and the dominance is quite high still!

PostalAzul

I'm having a blast with CRO. I'm still waiting for ALT season.

ROSE the ALT SEASON is coming!!!

Because ALT season is AFTER halving 🤙🏻 ETH is just leading the way

Cypto_Spaniard

FOMO is around the corner guys, about to hit. When it hits we will see once more almost every single ALT pumping double digits for days in a row 🔥

uranusflyer_69

Just because your ALT did not pump yet doesn't mean it will fly soon 👍🏼 ALTs move after BTC 

FiatFree

ETF buyers are not going to sell their BTC for ALTs, how would there come an ALT season?

BandLED

No I converted some ALT Coins to BTC last week. As I don’t believe in any ALT coin and want to get rid of them.

Went heavy into Polkadot (DOT), Moonbeam's GLMR and Polkaswap (PSWAP) in 2021....and still holding on to all. My entry into DOT was okay-ish....slightly under $4 per DOT on average so it's doing well enough for me....but not enough for me to want to cash out. Moonbeam and Polkaswap however....it's been tough. Fortunately I am at a profit (barely) with Moonbeam thanks to DCAing into it as it went all the way down. Staking rewards helped too. Fortunately it's starting to creep up slowly now. Polkaswap however....don't know what's going on with this project. The team seems to be building consistently and the project itself is fantastic on paper...but at the end of the day, the interest from the general community doesn't seem to be there. The price action has been atrocious and it seems hopeless for recovery... I'm keeping my fingers crossed, hoping it will pump when the ALT frenzy starts and/or when Polkadot 2.0 builds hype.....Hoping for the best, but definitely expecting the worst with this one based on how it has been performing.

Looking at crypto logos in CoinMarketCap, I know nothing about ALT, but that has to be the worst logo yet. My eyes are exploding looking at it

I've already 1000x'ed with FET, I don't think it'll go much higher, but ALT season hasn't even started and we still have ETH Dencun upgrade.

Dannyrecksz_

Imo we’re gonna go lower than a couple days ago. 70k is a good round number. I’ll be adding ALT coins on dips for sure.

HiddenRaconteur

Have you ever lived through an ALT season before? It gets pretty wild! 🤪

Hitchie_Rawtin

> when that ALT goes 10X take that cash and put it in your pocket. Counterpoint: you're telling me I should've sold ETH at $100.

LeoIsLegend

Think we see ETH pump and mini ALT rally. Then correction and full alt season later in the year.

daddywookie

Take. Profits. If there is one piece of advice everybody needs to pay attention to it is to take profits. Sure, hold your BTC until the end times but when that ALT goes 10X take that cash and put it in your pocket. Then have a think where to put it to work next.

crypto_dood

we'll see. I think the BTC bull is over and it's ALT-time now/soon.

35YOstartingagain

Shorting ALTS in a prebull market is pretty silly. The drops compared to gains just dont compare. Why not just wait for a setup of these ALT coins and jump on the 40% pump and make wayyy more money.

joatmone

Damn! Everyone’s ALT bags are pumping! From my bag only FET is ! I will take it.

MoCraftProductions

Probably a novice question but how do you find those ALT coins. Is it luck, loads of research like what’s a good way to find alt coins invest say $50 in them and just let them sit

mgd09292007

Haha I remember making about $25k from a $500 purchase of an ALT coin in 2020…I sat on it and sold it for $90 LOL…take profits people

optitmus

last bull cycle i watched so many memecoins & NFT's go mental while solid ALT projects didnt move. Learned back then the market is completely irrational. DYOR does F all

PsychologicalIron381

It already started in September 2023. Most of ALT increased 400 ~ 500% of the bottom. It's time because we haven't achieved the ATH on the ALT market cap yet. But caution! This cycle is very different from the last. And remember that the market always anticipates what will happen.

Horror-Badger9314

When you decide to go through the ALT way you signed a contract: maybe you can 10x BTC or maybe most of the time not . More risk, more reward. I’m starting to think that this circle won’t have an alt season The drivers are so different.

Ozymandius21

Not if you nail down your Alt. ETH was an Alt. SOL is still an ALT.

NoMetal180

Its all shitcoins - people said ETH was a shitcoin at .60 cents. They said SOL was a shitcoin when it was fractions of the last cycles bottom. If you just want BTC and ETH gains enjoy. 20-100x is on the table with ALTs that hasnt been on table for BTC for a while and even from bottoms doesn't look possible for ETH. If you listened to this guy you would have missed SOL between 10 - 25 USD. Easy 10x at the top of that range if it his ATH again. Got ALT bags from Nov - March that are 50% - 1300% up and the market is just getting "frothy" from this guys perspective. Just know what your skills are - this guy is low risk buy hold. Others are different and don't make long winded posts about only investing in 2 coins lol

btc retraces, ALT.......

Surely this ALT will be the new Bitcoin! Oh it wasnt... Surely this next ALT will be the new Bitcoin! Oh it wasnt... Surely this next ALT will be the new Bitcoin! Oh it wasnt... Surely this next ALT will be the new Bitcoin! Oh it wasnt... Surely this next ALT will be the new Bitcoin! Oh it wasnt... ...

Lauramadouk

It feels like it would be too late to invest into a new ALT at this point. Even though I know it's not, but almost vertical graphs in the past couple of months scare me. I guess I gonna keep waiting for a correction 🤡

AppleSalty2916

ALT season is a fkn beautiful thing, ain’t it?

DeFi_Ry

That could be a bit different. All this new money from the ETFs means those people won't migrate to shitcoins Previous runs people had to make accounts on exchanges to get the action. Now people are just using their regular stock apps. Expect the ALT coin run to be muted, but still there

Tkldsphincter

You're right that there is more friction, but that might change is more financial institutions offer straight crypto and stocks (like Wealth simple). Would be an easy 1 minute process.  The most epic ALT season will happen if any ALT token, aside from ETH, becomes an ETF. Or we see more ETFs that are composed of many tokens (like BITW)

Oswald18420

And those people say things like “ALT season officially started today…”

AdministrativeNews39

ALT season happens at the end of a bull run. I really hope we haven’t reached alt season yet.

Half_Dead

That ship has sailed. How would you feel if you switched to BTC and your ALT'S started pumping and you watched them go to the moon? Then after watching them pump to the moon for a year you finally sell the BTC and get back into them only to watch them start bleeding? You would feel like the world's biggest idiot and it wouldn't be far from the truth. Smart money doesn't get in at the top it gets in at the bottom. In other words, smart money is going to start switching form BTC to ALT'S and has been in mostly BTC up until now. It's about the BTC dominance. If BTC dominance is getting near a local high for the business cycle it makes little sense to FOMO into it now. If you are having FOMO then put a small portion of your bags into BTC but don't abandon the coins you've been riding.

Angustony

I traded for BTC in the middle of the bear winter. Not the greatest exchange rate, but it's nice to see BTC growth easily exceeding the ALT growth. Looking at the prices today, I'm pretty sure they'd mostly make it back up to their buy price at least, so I wouldn't lose money, but by the time Bitcoin has dragged everything else's prices up that far, swapping means I make money, not break even. Also gives me some losses to offset my capital gains against, which is nice.

Infermion

Just shilling my bags: KAS, FET, OCEAN, ALT, CGPT

FunnyGamer97

Bearish news?! Man we must be headed towards an insane ALT, always do the opposite of these idiots!
