Altseason Still Pending: Bitcoin Dominance Holds Strong as Crypto Market Awaits Catalyst

• Bitcoin reached an all-time high of $109K, but a full Altseason is still pending.
• BTC dominance remains high, delaying the expected surge in altcoins.
• The market may need a catalyst to trigger altcoins rally before the cycle ends.
• Analysts suggest patience, as historical trends indicate an altcoin rally is inevitable.

Bitcoin (BTC) showed strong performance in this bull cycle, experiencing several ups and downs and hitting its all-time high at $109k. Along with BTC’s surge several altcoins surged significantly and reached new all-time highs but a proper Altseason is pending.

Looking at Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) near its cycle peak, market watchers awaiting for long-anticipated Altseason. Historically, when Bitcoin dominance fell down it could trigger altcoins surge, now the market waiting for this to happen and let the Altseason’s start.

Bitcoin is currently showing strong performance but BTC.D is still holding upward trend. Crypto analyst, Crypto Patel pointed out that, a bull cycle is not completed without Altseason. In addition, when Bitcoin cools down altcoins start surging, but something is preventing altcoins from surging.

One major concern is that the current cycle is on a tight timeline. The analyst doubts that Altseason will take 7 to 8 months to take place and the bull market could be extended to 2026. The analyst is confident that the shift will happen but stresses the need for a catalyst to kickstart the move.

What Need To Happen For Altseason

The key indicator to watch is BTC dominance. If BTC dominance was sitting at 40-45% it would signal that Altseason is already completed. However, with BTC.D sitting at its peak, the probability for altcoins rally is too strong.

The analyst cautions to stay patient and avoid panic selling, as past cycles suggest that an altcoin rally is an inevitable part of the market cycle.  “We’re close, but we need a trigger,” he emphasized, reinforcing that BTC dominance is the ultimate signal to watch.

With the clock ticking on this bull cycle, all eyes are on BTC dominance and the potential for a rapid capital rotation into altcoins. Will the long-awaited Altseason finally erupt, or is this cycle breaking the rules? The coming months will be crucial.
