The last 5 months have been an uphill ride for most of us wherein we have gained so much in altcoins especially those coins which were literally dead or simply considered as shit coins like HOT(Holo), Pundi but they have given massive profit with unexpected pump wherein XRP, XLM who were front runners at the beginning of bullrun are at standby mode compared to their previous bullrun during 2017. What's your though on this?

yes, this year has been a very good year for investing in cryptocurrency, because we have seen a lot of new ATH price and of course the bullrun this year is very good (the correction was very small), so it makes us get a lot of profit from investing in cryptocurrency at this time, therefore I hope this bullrun will not stop and continue to give us profit.

I think that this is not the end and the rise in prices will continue until the end of this year.
Although many experts say that the S&P 500 is highly overvalued, and it will go down.
Bitcoin has been very strongly correlated with this index lately, so the price of Bitcoin will depend on this index.
And other cryptocurrencies will follow the rise or fall of bitcoin.

They're just going with the market's flow and what bitcoin is doing. Many altcoins are like that but there are also coins that have been dead already and can no longer recover.
This bull run for the whole crypto market is still going on and I don't think that we're very near to its end, not that so fast. And price of bitcoin probably hasn't reached the peak yet.

This year gives us a huge surprise and you were right that many of those dead coins suddenly rise. And yeah, I have that 2 coins that I never think it has the value for it was dead since 2018 after the 2017 Bullrun.
From that, I have realized that hypes and some sort of market manipulations are still alive. We definitely can't ignore that thing and we can't just junk all the coins that we thought it is been dead already coz we never know that one day it will give us a big surprise.

Many users benefited from the altcoin bullrun in this year as bitcoin took up a new phase, breaking all previous highs to firm a new Alll Time High (ATH). Altcoin bullruns will always remain in the shadows of bitcoin bullrun and as such, its slow progress would continue to be beneficial to those who continues to hodl until bitcoin attains some stability before the altcoin market would start experiencing some sky rocketing value of its own following a high value in bitcoin prices. Bitcoin trippled while Altcoins doubled except for ethereum that followed bitcoin closely.

I did not feel right now the bull run of altcoins because of these some of my altcoins that I have in my blockfolio are still in low of price.
But some altcoins that not have was experiencing a bull run right now and some of them a altcoins that was I trade early so thats why I frustrated of why I trade it for a low of price but I dont blame my self because on that time I just need some money cause of this lock down in my place.

Many are still waiting for the real bull run with the altcoins and the current pump with Pundi maybe because of their update and still, many altcoins are not pumping that much and too small to say a bull run.

Today, we are started to rise again and hopefully that altcoins will continue the trend especially the good one. We heard a good news today and the market react on that, bull run with bitcoin maybe is still here and it can still affect altcoins market.

Altcoins have massive gains since one year, we are in a bull market. That can finish anytime, it's hard to guess what time will it happen but it definitely happen at some point. There isn't any market going up and up only all the time.
Almost all coins made 10x and more, it can go further but don't rely on them too much. You should take profit to realize your gains, otherwise it would only be virtual.

This is why I think the bull run for altcoins is not to bull, the bull is selective this time. It was almost all the altcoins in 2017 that had the impact of the bull. Now this year, top altcoins have been having bull since, like bnb and ETH before some more altcoins are joining in the bull. Generally, I think it is not taking a uniform progression.

The strange thing about Altcoins bull market is it selects certain coins out of hundreds. The only way to make huge profits from that is by following the trend, meaning you'll be buying the altcoins with higher momentum. Buying only the trending Altcoins, the Altcoins that are going up during a certain period of time, a day or week. You should take note that trading altcoins is very risky because you can easily loss your money. By the way, trading altcoins is not for lazy people because you must monitor the market movements all the time to avoid losing your money 💰

I think altcoin bull run will continue, but I'm not sure if there will be shitcoins that are going to moon or how many of them, just like in 2017, it's a total ball game right now. Although it's possible, it will be just pure pump&dump scheme, so we should be cautious about them.

Only solid coins in the top 1-20 will have a good run, we have seen more of them already have a new all time high and it might go higher this year.

Im not sure about that dude and if you are watching the gainers and losers on CMC and you will get the fact that if there are lots of coins from the top 400 - 1000 that already got a few hundreds of percents of pump.
bitcoin is very stable at this moment, which gives room for the altcoins that placed at the bottom price to grow as soon as possible.
it's very good to see that happen for now. Altcoin bull is not selective but it's just random.

Yes. Dead coins have already lost their value so they won't pump anymore. But for those who are listed in top 20 potential coins will surely continue to make significant pumps so i think this bull run will not end so soon. The whole market is really in a good shape right now but once bitcoin starts falling, more likely altcoins will drop too.

Yeah, the current state of the crypto market is very bullrun. Many altcoins are pumping and have given a profit. Even today altcoins are still stable
at varying prices and are profitable for short-term traders or day traders. I'm certainly taking advantage of the current market conditions. I trade short
and make a profit even though it's not much, because I play with not much capital. But I'm quite satisfied that little-by-little capital has increased.

Last year 2020 the price of the altcoins rise but not very high like the bitcoin who rise many times on it's value. I think this year 2021 we will experience a bull run to the altcoins and the good altcoins to buy are ethereum, polkadot , ripple, litecoin and binance which is the most strong altcoins in the cryptocurrency. altcoins bull run will happen if we are remain calm of holding our coins and also keep buying will help to up the value of the coins..

I don't know the full reason but one thing I have noticed is that this bull run is different from the last one and market favors those lower cap projects more than the bigger cap ones except its cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, ETH, ADA and a few others. Cryptos like XLM and XEM that were favorites in the last bull run are not being appreciated in the current one. I believe it's because these projects haven't had a major news in the long time and people are only after new projects these days.

This is what we have called that as altcoins bullrun and the whales were pumping any coins randomly based on their intention. You will never know which coin that will be pumped by the whales for sure.
The fact that if the shit coin is even going to the moon and just like that.
The altcoin bullish season already started last year and this time it keeps growing even higher than last year price.
Whales didn't even need development progress but it will be pumping the coin intentionally.

I am Bullish for Altcoin Bullrun.Currently there is mini bullrun is running .Most of Altcoins are performing very well .They are gaining 30-50 percent gain within one or two weeks.we should not miss out these opportunities.

The growth of altcoins this year is very different from the same growth in the second half of 2017, when almost all altcoins were growing in price. Now only those that have perspective are growing and this is more acceptable for the cryptocurrency market. However, in general, the growth is still good, for a longer period of time altcoins are colored green. Regardless, I still have hope for the altcoin season after the relative stabilization of the bitcoin price at its high price level.

We now have new set of investors and the catalyst now isn't the same with the previous bullrun. We now have more experience in the market as Institutional investors are coming in in their numbers meaning the market is soon to be more mature and stable unlike 2016 that we had more in inexperienced investor and speculators.

Now we have NFT and DeFi projects front running the bullrun that's because they're the trending technology right now. When it comes to altcoins they have their season to trend. The old coins are still great choice but don't expect same results with trending project.

When it comes to altcoins bull run,, you can always go with the flow but apply cautious unless you're investing for long term that's when you don't have to care about the pumps and dump as coins are likely going to dump ones the energy die off.

what happened at this moment was different. The new investors you mention are those who are experienced and have a large community. they have their own market which could bring their followers to join the crypto market.
many institutions and large market communities have joined the crypto market. that's what makes the bulls we see now look strong even with some corrections that have taken place.

Do you really still fool enough to believe that there will be "Altcoin Bullrun"?

My thought about this ? Nothing that comes like this because Altcoin will grow Individually and Bitcoin will only have Bull Run .

That's the reality and must be accepted .

For NPXS (Pundi) it is quite surprising because the price was once only one satoshi and sees a few days ago the price has gone up now around 13 satoshis, this news NPXS Will Be PUNDIX (https://blog.pundix.com/2021/03/19/npxs-will-be-pundix/.) seems to have an impact on the NPXS price.
Is the price increase of some altcoins that can be said to be almost dead can describe the Altcoin bullrun? I don't have idea, I only think this the right time for a long time hold to sell the coin to take profit.

very selective and the ones i thought will actually rise above are the ones that are outranked. i really thought lisk and waves are still up to go beyond top 20 since the beginning of the year, disappointing to see it's not running up. their value however is somehow good as it's also appreciating.


since the time when there was an article published on cointelegraph which NPXS partnered with big players, it already continued to have their season. if anyone has seen this coming back 2018, they could have bought millions of this token for $1k.

I think that 30 - 50 percents are still quite small while the fact that almost all of altcoins that were getting pumped gained more than 200% increase.
This pump is not a small pump and even some coins were gaining more than 1k increase in a short time. The golden chance to buy altcoins when it was getting traded at the bottom price already gone.
people must have paid more to get altcoins right now as the price is getting increase a lot compared with the last year's price.
Just see the market and it tells everything.

I don't see how this can be sustainable if everything goes up, not matter if it have any real value or not.

OP, and everyone else who is not aware of the crypto market in the last 10 years, should start with checking some old charts! In just 10 years many things are different, but Bitcoin is still number 1! But for this topic what's interesting is the top 100 and 99 coins behind Bitcoin! If you check this out you will see that some coins had a higher position before, but they are going down every year... some coins from that list do not exist anymore!

So bullrun happened, for some alts this was a crazy ride! And I am sure the game is not over, some of them will rise more, but there is the other side, some will go down! And I believe we will see new projects that will try to shake this market, even more, it's the progress!

Ive been holding trx for long term and the recent pump made me sell that off and gain profits. I may say my patience and effort were go on a waste, instead if we see opportunity like this, there is no space for greediness and wise decisions should incorporate.

And each altcoins have time to shine, if some of your altcoins are bit late in the recent bull run, another bullish time will be their turn.

Oh yeah, for now roughly what Altcoins could be good to make around 30-50 percent in a week or two?
maybe you can suggest it for me even though i will check again after receiving your suggestion, give the suggestion now?

Listening to suggestion is good but I cannot rely on what people telling since maybe they are a supporter of those coins and want to spread false information. So better you should check here on what are the gainer and losers alts this days. https://coinmarketcap.com/gainers-losers/ 

True, Asking for suggestions like this could attract someone to shill you into coins that are really hanging on value. There are good tokens in that list that has a really good potential but most of them are just recently woke up that comes up after a long sleep. I will just hang on the top 100 altcoins of CMC for the more secure, stable, and readable project.

Exactly, big capital is needed to sustain the bullrun and tbh it seems all the institutional investor money goes into major coin like bitcoin or ethereum while majority of other altcoins investors or buyers comes from retailer.
Can't expect much when it's clearly obvious that bitcoin and eth has all the spotlight in this year, but honestly the current altcoin growth that we experienced this year is already really good compared to 2019.

That depends on the bitcoin and i should remind you that when bitcoin can sustain even longer and altcoins will be following it but again only altcoins that have very good fundamentals can sustain from the dump.
The bullish trend is also happening with some altcoins but it was going down again. The pump can sustain even longer when altcoin has active development progress.
That being said altcoin will determine its future. The real value will come from the result of development progress.

As we can all see, on the past year, specifically on year 2017 there are a lot of new altcoins that was introduced during the reign of great campaigns. Unfortunately, as bitcoin's value suddenly went down, most of those altcoins went down real hard too and some ended up being a dead coin whilst some are listed as shit coins by now. Suddenly, on this year, as bitcoin's bull run breaks everyone's expectation, we witnessed the rise of the altcoins once again and we can all agree that bitcoin has something to do with the current status of most of the altcoins, even the dead ones or those that are long gone. Let us make the most from this bull run and wisely make decisions that will make our investment more beneficial.

A lot of coins are pumping at this current stage. If we think about BTT, it is growing so fast. Personally I try to avoid XRP and for me XRP is a trap. There are a lot of altcoin to choose but XRP isn't good choice.

Altcoin Bullrun has been largely moving around bitcoin as a reliance on that curve.  Everything is a trajectory.  When you hear Visa accept USDC as a form of payment, Paypal plans to shape LTC, BCH, ETH as their method of global acceptance.  That is why I expect a bull run for altcoins in the near future.  This is just the first phase, hopefully to see more encouraging things.  Many altcoins are sure to change their positions and roles very soon in this trend.  And to benefit from this, surely you must quickly create an investment fund!

If we take into account the indicators of the cryptocurrency market in 2017, then the current market is very different, since at that time almost all cryptocurrencies moved in parallel with bitcoin. Today we see a different picture of what is happening. The bull run began its movement almost two months before the end of 2020, but only a few months after the beginning of 2021, other altcoins began to activate, and until then only Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as DeFi, showed good results in the cryptocurrency market. I believe that this is due to the large investments of cryptocurrency users focused on Bitcoin and Ethereum in order to make good profits, and after reaching the maximum prices of these cryptocurrencies, they place their bet on other altcoins. It was when Bitcoin reached another all-time high that began fluctuating within the range of 50 - 60 K dollars, other altcoins began to show quite good results.

The time has come for being more careful with our buy. The bull is kicking up and I see some altcoins in green including the shits projects. The pump is on and the dump too can start anytime and like you rightly said, a short time investor looking for ROI in a shortest time may be built with a wrong investment. Investing in top altcoins can be better for shorting while unknown projects can go for longtime.

I think the dump will not happen anytime soon but when it happens even the good altcoins do not survive it. Ethereum is the second biggest coin and has been very a very long time and it was 88 dollars at the bottom, before the bull run happened last year it was around 130 dollars, so I can easily say that over 90% to 95% fall is not something that second biggest coin should have endured.

I understand that people may not be increasingly happy with what they have, but that is going to be something that we will have to live with no matter what if the dump comes. ETH will be very low, BNB will be very low ADA will be very low Dot will be very low, all of them will be very low without a doubt. I understand that people have hopes that their good coins will stand and not drop as much as the other ones, but that's not true, all coins will drop if a huge crash comes.

People are now cautious when it comes to investing altcoins, they have been in the loss last 2017 Bullrun due to a wrong choice of coin and that was a lesson to learn not to happen again that is why we mostly see that only known altcoins will have the surge. Well, the result is good, and in the sense that why we should put our money at risk to the coins that will no longer give us a return? Of course, choosing known coins with reliable market liquidity gives us the assurance of profit and that we have to consider most.

I think April will be very interesting for the real start of the altseason and I think it will be much bigger than 2017, players now have a lot more money and it's not just retail investors... institutional FOMO could be epic.

lots of interesting projects are going out, and people are realizing that they have let it slip away, now they are trying to get promising token before its too late, surely April will be a month to look at because there are projects who are going live, and some have some big upgrades coming their way, trying to outlast one another to be at the top of the crypto world, that is what pushing it although the bull run already started a month ago, I'm sure it's just getting started.

Pundi never rose to prices where XRP is currently holding and XRP is still in the game because of Ripple Labs (which actually ripped off its investors behind the scenes) whereas Pundi X has a real use case, a POS product that is already been used in the markets and their buybacks and burns. I don't know why they decided to give away the tokens in a 3 months period (that quick release of the remaining tokens as part of the investors' NPXS staking percentage), but the price fell down due to that only.

Some coins are still yet to attain their previous ATH even amidst the wonders of new coins, I feel there is still a chance for them to perform. But I won't be too hopeful on them even if they don't meet up my target. Like XRP would have done much but its currently facing some charges, this has affected its run. The bull run is still much in view and more coins wil do some new magic.

Altcoin season is still starting to happen, but not fully because there are still many coins that have not reached or pass their previous ATH. And many coins are still struggling, not increasing very significantly. For some altcoins, there are really high pumps and dump every day because of the fewer fundamentals. So, we must be ready for this season and also be careful not to be traped with the FOMO or pump and dump situation.

Can say that those who are still holding as of this moment we're luck that they didnt just sell off those coins whom we have thought that its already dead or doesnt have any chance for some recovery

or pumps in the future.Its totally unpredictable and im much more aware with their existence specially Pundi which had been a hype wayback on that 2017 bull run where several projects did

really make out noise but eventually after the crash then these project turns out to be silent for a couple of years.I dont know on whats the actual reason on why they had
been pumped again.Lucky for those who do still baghold.

The main reason why XRP haven't pump massively and being in standby mode is because of its on-going case against US SE but I have a strong feeling that together with XLM, XRP will also have its massive bull run before this bull cycle ended and will attain a new ATH.

People realizing that crypto can become an alternative on current condition, Borderless payment without complicated step which is the solution for today condition. Beside that DeFi give everyone basic financial needs without centralized authority and today we also can see the rise NFT which is giving another push to previous bullruns, Well It's all a matter of time, Let's wait and see!

HOLO was actually a top coin even back in 2018, its a good project but mining it includes but their own device that i didn't even tried reading after learning it. but when it was on its deepest price i was looking to buy it which now i'm regretting i did not. so is Pundits.

i don't think the bullrun will stop as early as possible. there could really be a big cycle ahead of us that we could break the ATHs of BTC. it's just a matter of time.

following what bitcoin has been doing so far and the market flow of bitcoin, that's what other altcoins are doing, maybe they hope to get up in that way but there are also many altcoins that remain unrecoverable and even sink.

The race for the entire crypto market is still happening and it is too early to assume that we are at the end of the competition, and we cannot even guess whether bitcoin is at its peak or if there will still be a surge that will take our breath away.

Im not sure about that dude. The liquidity sometimes gone and it will be coming back again when there will be a good update from the development of coin.
The price of altcoin totally depends on the development that will attract people to buy such coin and this will increase the liquidity.
that's why altcoin that has a proper development already become major coin right now.

Pure fortuna

Luck is good, but before investing in any project, you need to study its white paper.

It seems that you are suggesting people who are more familiar with this, but that is fine, but you should also know that the project white paper can also be manipulated by developers whose only intention is to deceive everyone in crypto.

Now almost all coins, after TGE, grow in price by tens of thousands of percent. Therefore, at the moment, we need to consider such options for participating in the private sale of new projects, because at the stage of public sale, the price of such coins is already several times higher.

I think that there are some Defi projects right now which still catch attention of investors, and given the rise of Bitcoin in price, some other coins are getting their cuts of the pie, so to speak. However, I don't believe we're going to see anything like the blooming market of 2017 once again. The reason I believe that the time of Altcoins is over is Bitcoin's share of the total crypto market capitalization. During the prosperous 2017, the share dropped significantly. Right now, the share is still very solid, and it doesn't look like this is going to change. Some altcoins might get overhyped and reach new ATHs, some might even get to the top and get taken seriously. But these will all be exceptions.

When we notice that Bitcoin is peaking up and continued to create Bullrun, then we are asking when altcoins season. And finally, it arrives now but I don't understand why we are still in doubt about the bullish happen to altcoins. I don't know why? Because if that only we end up asking and the credibility of the current situation of altcoins, we'd better not to ask then in the first place.

As this was happening in the previous market rally, we definitely see it happen again and I don't think we need to ask about it but rather to enjoy the moment given to us, and besides, this is the answer to the long wait of altcoins holders to make money from their investment.

Bull run this time will be longer and more sustainable because Bitcoin has not reached the $ 100k mark as predicted by most people. The cash flow is continuously flowing into the market and it can be said that this year's sentiment is better than the previous times when people did not Panic sell. TOP altcoins have yet to break the ATH of the previous years so the market still has room to grow.

During this bull market we see a lot of new coins emerging and doing very well price wise like Polkadot, Solana, Kusama, Cosmos and basically all those projects that were about "Defi" a few weeks/months ago and that are now about "NFT's". From the old coins a lot of projects are still a mile away from their ATH's that they reached during the bullrun in 2017 even though the total market cap today is way higher than in 2017. Examples for that are IOTA, NEO, XRP. Those coins do not have the bonus of an early mover anymore and also need to deliver exciting new features and news to stay relevant.

It looks like April is the month that will push the market up, especially bitcoin towards the new ATH in April and lots of good news about bitcoin price going forward.
and this time the increase in bitcoin began to slowly increase altcoins and you have to be really smart to choose an altcoin that can provide very good profit.
This is a great time to buy and choose a potentially profitable altcoin for the next few months as there is a lot of good news about crypto which I think will boost the market in the near future.

Well the 2017 bullrun was quite memorable, like even in Bitcoin everyone was eyeing on 20k, but didn't breach too far from that.
This month, we don't know actually, but just like what I would advise to many that don't focus too much in newer project cause most of it would end up in a crap value anyway.

Some new coins are peaking up with surprise and we have to be careful with this because this could never stay long and it dumps right away. If we have those altcoins and sees their great value now, better not to hesitate to sell them.
2017 teaches a lot and reminding us everyone to be careful and cautious when it comes to investing in new projects because most of the time they never survive with the market competition and then just abandoned by the developers.

We can say that investors are now more prudent in their research, they check double-check and even triple check coins that they are going to invest, they are not in a hurry to put money, no investors would like to have a repeat on what happened in 2017 crash where altcoins are making a huge pump only to crash a few weeks, expect only a few altcoins to have a bull run compared back 2017.

Sure, if Bitcoin does not go up, then there is not a single altcoin that can rally and skyrocket. People will have to look at Bitcoin's volatility before investing in altcoins. Just like that, when Bitcoin falls 10%, the altcoin will decrease many times over that number. When Bitcoin increases 10% altcoins only increase slightly until Bitcoin increases many times before it is the altcoin's turn to increase in price. After many such times, Bitcoin and altcoin have deviated after the rise and fall.

As for me, lots of things could still happen soon. This isn't the end of the altcoin season yet because Bitcoin is still in a good shape. I just hope that more altcoins would rise not just those that are on top. Potential coins are now rising better because investors are being skeptical in choosing where to invest. Good things could still happen in altcoins so we must expect the best.

XRP and XLM are from same entity which are under SEC scanner right now. When those coins are having uncertain future, what else we could expect from them. I believe ripple will somehow will solve this situation as they might be a multi-billionaires right now, big thanks to XRP's continuous pump and dump. Moreover altcoin bullrun does not need to be same for all the altcoins; it is most common that many of them will not be participating or may do when bitcoin into bear markets.

In my opinion, waves, trx and many other McAfee's coins and tokens are still missing this current bull run and they may have their own run later on or may stay where they are right now and then may join by the next cycle of bull run as well.

Well, this will happen sooner or later, when literally every coin will soar in price, when you buy any coin and it just grows at a cosmic speed by several dozen times.

But here the main thing is to get out of the position in time and fix the profit, because it is also possible to stay with nothing.

I would not be on that... Since a few months, top 20 projects saw their capitalisation going up but they were not the only ones. Lot of good projects from top 50 to 500 (even more maybe) have experienced some serious upside ! I personally bet it will go on this way  ;)

You mean to those top 100-500 coins in the market? I do rather believe that those are mostly been pumped randomly but there are still projects which are really underrated or does really
have the potential but most of them are just on random pumps and this is where those people who do believe with low cap coins to have some chance for some pump.

When it comes to altcoin bull run then no one can really predict precisely but as you can see that most top altcoins are really going along with bitcoin market.

So its hard to determine if those movements are already the actual bull run or just simply some simple steps but in gradual basis?

Altcoin bullrun happen when bitcoin bullrun finish and marketcap for whole blockchain will be spread to legit altcoin project, there is two type of speculator used this momentum :
1. Use altcoin bullrun to grab more satoshi ( it means the speculator will trade it back to btc in a short time )
2. Use altcoin bullrun to grab dollar ( they will cashing out to dollar and wait for that altcoin to dump then buy back those altcoin again )
