Altcoin Season Indicators Strengthen as Bitcoin Loses Market Share

- Bitcoin dominance breaks long-term trendline as altcoin season index rises to 60.
- Altcoin market cap hits $1.6T with MACD turning bullish, signaling momentum shift.
- Glassnode data shows falling profits and low volatility, hinting at sudden market moves.
Bitcoin’s market dominance has dropped to about 57%, a move analysts say could mark the start of a new cycle favoring altcoins. The decline comes alongside a surge in the CMC Altcoin Season Index, which climbed to 60 out of 100, up sharply from 36 a month ago. The index’s rise suggests that investor demand is rotating away from Bitcoin into alternative cryptocurrencies.
Over the past three months, altcoin market capitalization expanded from $1.2 trillion in June to nearly $1.6 trillion by late August. The index peaked in July, saw a brief pullback, and has since resumed its upward climb. Historical readings highlight the momentum: 54 one week ago, 56 yesterday, compared with just 36 last month.
