Last bull market (2025) we barely had any alt season. In fact, most alt coins never reached back their ATH and didn't have the level of gains of 2021.
It didn't even follow BTC that consistently. The rallies were short with more extended bear periods in between.
You had to really time it right to get those big gains. You had very brief rallies around December 2024, and then end of August and September 2025. And in many cases, even those rallies weren't a whole lot higher than the initial halving breakout.
At the same time, BTC's bullruns keep getting exponentially milder and at a fraction of the gains of the previous cycle. So that could translate to also milder alt seasons.
It also doesn't help that we went from having under 2,000 alt coins in 2018, to over 10,000 on exchanges in 2021, to now over 100 Million that can be traded.
What are your expectations for the next alt season? Are we gonna make up for the lack of one last cycle? Is it gonna be a specific niche? Or is it gonna get even more disappointing?

Most coins never reached their ATH even in cycles before 2025.
Alt seasonings?
Bull market alt season…
Whoever still uses those terms needs to enter the 2020’s.
