Bitcoin Forum

The majority of my portfolio is in altcoins and I am currently 29% in profit which I am happy with considering the Bitcoin halving is still 3 months away.

This is my first bull run over the next few years so I am just wondering when do altcoins usually start really pumping, is it long after the Bitcoin halving?

I think a lot of altcoins are already starting to increase now mainly because of bitcoin’s increase in price and the anticipated halving event

You can expect altcoins to pump more in the next following months guaranteed that bitcoin will be increasing more thus trust in the cryptocurrency scene will be heightened  still note that altcoins are extremely volatile and are much harder to predict it is still best to keep an open mind and observe altcoins that you hold

You never know when the altcoin season will come, but is your portfolio up 29% because of the altcoin season? I don't think this is not the time yet, of course I said because bitcoin has not been ATH and has not been halving either, so there is no need to worry if the market has started bullish, usually the season will come together.

there will be no right time to estimate it all. but when you learn from what happened in the previous market, the altcoin market will also follow the increase when Bitcoin started pumping.
Bitcoin seemed to have started a good position at the beginning of this year. but we are still waiting for the actual pump. If you hope the altcoin you hold will follow Bitcoin's pump after the Halving, hold it and wait for the momentum. I hope you are not too hasty to release your assets, or even too greedy to get ATH.

Altcoin session follows immediately after the Bitcoin halving, in fact nothing like altcoin season or session what happened is that since bitcoin is the major propeller all altcoin follows the trends except for those that goes against bitcoin directions. Meaning those coin you think that are making profits are solely relying on bitcoin progress and increment, watch out today whatever negative news that affect bitcoin you would notice a significant drop in all altcoin and immediately the market will turned to blood bath why because lots of altcoin being driven by bitcoin price.

You can also experiment that yourself, when bitcoin was around 25k sometimes last year did most of the shitcoin flew then like now? No because bitcoin wasn't making any changes in the market, so I will always tell you the truth about altcoin they are dependant of bitcoin so, as long as bitcoin keeps increase you will also find them making progress and if you must hold make sure to pull out before halving over.

I don't know what a d what you have invested in altcoins, but when your portfolio is not constituting bitcoin as the major holdings you're having then you're taking high risk, we do encourage that Bitcoin first then followed by few additional altcoins, there's probability that altcoins will rise along with bitcoin during the bullrun, if you're lucky enough, some or all of your investments may also rise along with bitcoin during the bullrun and some may actually not, this is part of the risk involved.

Bitcoin is the safest. But it will not see as much gains as some of the altcoins, a few of my altcoins have already pumped 3x , 4x and one even did 10x in just a few weeks recently.

Altcoins are higher risk but I am well diverse so if a few of them do go to zero, I expect the majority to do well.

I am planning on putting a lot of my altcoin profits this bull run into Bitcoin in the next bear market in a few years.

Based on last two halvings of 2016 and 2020 we have seen a bull run the following year as we witnessed bull runs in 2017 & 2021. But we have already seen pump in Altcoin which was bit unexpected before Bitcoin bull run and TBH I don't think anyone can accurately speculate about bull run but if you are an short te investor then keep an eye on market as Altcoins may go through correction as well before the actual bull run.

You’re right that this coming bull run is a bit different, the reason is that all altcoins actually follow the trend of bitcoin and if you notice bitcoin had a fantastic price pump last year most especially the last quarter of the year due to the hype around the upcoming ETF approval so this made all Alticoins to follow the trend and that’s why we are seeing them pumping even before the bitcoin halving. This simply tells you that there is nothing like an Altcoins season they all pump when bitcoin pump the only and drop when bitcoin drops in price. The only difference is that they are more volatile than bitcoin. So for an Altcoins investor my advice is to keep an eye in market and take profit when if pumps don’t go long term on Altcoins because most are just pump and dump coins

the bull season already started. a little bit of waiting you might just profit more than that 29% you wouldn't want to lose that chance especially if you are keeping the altcoin for a long time.

its frustrating to see though that the price spikes of altcoins aren't so sharp compared to BTC. it's going to test your patience. i have my share of frustration thinking of short-term investments, i realized altcoin is the not right choice for short term.

I don't think altcoins have their special bull but they are moving with the bull of Bitcoin whenever Bitcoin goes up the altcoins also follow and whenever Bitcoin bear market starts altcoins bear will also start and no altcoins will surpass the price of Bitcoin for now therefore there is no specific bull market design for altcoins and all what you have to do is to follow the movement of Bitcoin.

Altcoins are alternative to Bitcoin so like now that Bitcoin is climbing the leather to the top all the altcoins are also following it. So as the altcoins there are already in their bull market right while Bitcoin is on the way to it All Time High.

As long as bitcoin is in the process I believe that altcoins get positivity through bitcoin and altcoins already is pumping and without the acceleration of bitcoin their no altcoins that will be gain a green color at this moment, I believe that what we need right now is patient in our altcoins and if you cross check the altcoins you will see that so many of them is Changing in fraction or values as you may see, all because of signs of bitcoin bullrun that gives rise to some of the altcoins that gains positivity.

Anyone that responds here doesn't have an idea just like you don't.  Every cycle does not ensure the next one happens the same.  The problem I see though is that you are in a majority of just altcoins.  Why wouldn't you be in bitcoin and to a lesser degree altcoins?  Thought of getting rich off of these fringe projects usually does not end up well. 

Not sure what you consider as altcoin season, or pumping but to me atlcoin season has started soon after altcoin marketcap broke the downtrend, and that was year ago. Because that's where bottom was and the rise started, it's a best place to invest. Now this is just bumpy road. And not all of them are going to pump. Lots of them are but changes are that you have few that doesn't.
But short answer is that they have been pumping radically more slightly after the halving. Some of them might get dumped by speculators as sell the news event.

And every prediction i say should be taken with a grain of salt as i don't know any better then some other random forum user.

 

I think that you've been making threads that this is going to be your first bull run and that's totally fine but it seems that your topics are just the same and circulates to your experience and asking for people's assurance that you're going to do well. With 29% in profit and knowing that we're not yet in the actual bull run, that's already a lot of profit on your end.

Usually, they comes next after Bitcoin. We will get to see the pump first with Bitcoin and then the altcoin season is going to come but this isn't an assurance for you because the market sentiments and patterns are changing. It may repeat but it doesn't have any guarantee that we may see the same pattern as is. That's how it goes and that's why if you're going to think of a matter of when the altseason will come. No one really knows exactly for this phase and season. What you must do is to take profits that you're good with and then just buy them back when you see that there's a good entry. Don't miss any single run for this particular season because you'll never know how long is going to be the bull and bear run.

I'm just waiting for Bitcoin to go sideways, with no dumps and no pumps for very long.
Then that's the time for me I will see the start of alt season, where every altcoin will just pump.
But before this will happen, I am expecting to see Bitcoin to pump first where for sure some people will move their profits to altcoins.

I understand that you are mostly invested in altcoin. But I want to know from you whether you invest in top position coin in altcoin or any altcoin like memcoin. We know that investing in altcoins is high in returns as well as high in risk. But if you invest in top altcoins then stay long term you will get more success. But currently we can see that Bitcoin is at the beginning of the bull season which is causing the Bitcoin market to rise a bit but I think the altcoin session has started but the price has not increased much. However, some top-level altcoins are recovering their prices.

good and I hope you hold the right altcoin. keep holding because in the future we will see much higher price increases. I thought today was the start of the bull run but since the ETF related post was deleted it caused everything to get delayed.

There's an altcoins season just because of Bitcoin.
When Bitcoin price increases, of course, altcoins too because most trading pairs are in Bitcoin.  The reason why is like this, Bitcoin holds the highest market capitalization and liquidity among all cryptocurrencies those traders and investors often use Bitcoin as a gateway to the cryptocurrency market.

So trading pairs of Bitcoin makes there's an alt season.
So wait for the Bitcoin price to push through and allocate a bigger percentage on Bitcoin than altcoins.

no one can guarantee with certainty when altcoins will ATH. as long as you are confident in the altcoins held, just keep investing there. and don't forget to keep making withdrawals so that at any time it shows a decrease in your assets, you don't worry too much about losing a lot of money. considering altcoins are very volatile compared to bitcoin.

I believe everything that is tied to Bitcoin has the bull run that Bitcoin has because it runs along with the price. You know that it was because of the hype of the ETF and making it an opportunity to ride it. It will be a while before the halving happens, it's just that it should be a wild ride again and it's best to be ready.

This is good if you are making money with your altcoin investments and feeling positive about the Bitcoin halving that is coming. But no one knows about that when the Altcoin will perform well and go up and the alt season will start.
If the dominance of Bitcoin will be on top so we can see significant increase and decrease in the Altcoins.
So this is really hard to predict that when the alt season will start but if Bitcoin will go up so some of the Altcoins can perform well.

A few months ago, alt coin did not have much success, one after another was disappointed in the alt market. I myself traded alt coin I suffered a lot so I prefer to trade bitcoin than alt coin. However, not all alt coins are good, some coins are reliable, among them the most reliable coin is Ethereum. I have had success with tate on ethereum. So if you want to trade in any coin after bitcoin you can definitely trade alt coin.

Let's wait for bitcoin to settle its move first. There is still time, and the ETF news is coming out today, so we will get an clearer picture of what is going to happen in the next few months. If ETF approval gets delayed, then the market will make a correction, and if it gets approved, then BTC will make a new ATH and altcoin will bleed. The only indicator that is useful to know about the altseason is bitcoin dominance. As soon as bitcoin dominance goes down altcoin market will start pumping.

Basically this happens after the bitcoin halving. It has always been seen that when the price of Bitcoin rises, the altcoins also pump up. However, alt coins are more volatile than Bitcoin, resulting in higher returns. But there is a lot of risk involved in altcoins. If you can choose top altcoins then definitely try to hold it for long term you can expect good things. Because this time Bitcoin has managed to create a great position. So you have no reason to despair about investing in alt coins. Because altcoin is driven by bitcoin price. As a result, your risk of losing large amounts of money is very low

The upcoming halving of Bitcoin this year is creating speculation and anticipation in the market. This increased interest in Bitcoin may also lead to increased attention and investment in altcoins. As the price of Bitcoin rises, it creates a bullish sentiment in the entire cryptocurrency market. We've seen investment in altcoins increase during bullish times, as traders look for alternative investment opportunities to capitalize on overall market conditions. As Bitcoin's dominance in the market grew, saw investors jump to allocating funds to altcoins in an effort to diversify their portfolios. It is likely that the altcoin bullish market may occur either before or after the halving, and this will become clearer as the halving event approaches.

It can start anytime now. But market conditions seem to have started already.  The price of some altcoins has already increased. Hope the price of altcoins will increase in the coming days.  But I would say altcoin has no hope.  Its stability is very unstable.  Therefore, investing in alt coin should be done very carefully.

I am not sure if anything will happen special, but I am sure that we are in a period where it is quite high and that alone is good enough for me to feel happy about as well. I get that it is not going to be something that may risk it, I just feel like it is something I feel like it could be done, and there is really nothing to worry about neither.

We are going to keep going up, no matter what happens we are going to keep going up and that's all that matters. I get that it looks like it could be something that may feel a little different, but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with anything major. I hope that we could get to a point where we could just assume things are well, and that is the most important part of the deal.

I think we just had alt season...  Looking at Solana it would appear that way anyway.  I see it's up nearly 300% over the last couple of months.  Typically we see this after Bitcoin goes up and people try to move their gains to other coins and then pump them to recycle the funds back to BTC.  So I think we may have seen the end of altcoin massive increases for now.  Once Bitcoin moves up another leg I'm sure we'll see some more pumping going on.  As always though, the safest and easiest bet is always Bitcoin.  There's no need to get more gains than that.  Just be patient.

Most of the altcoins especially those at the top tend to follow the price movement of Bitcoin.
The safest answer for that is, that when Bitcoin pumps, so do most altcoins.

Usually, it happens during the bull run though we've seen some altcoins that are just pumping out of nowhere because of some developments or additional features to their project like Solana who's been at the top now and becoming more popular because of some airdrops whatsoever. We are seeing projects at the bottom 100 just pumping out of nowhere. Bitcoin doesn't pump just after the halving event happens, but based on history, it's price goes up significantly a few months after the event.

Now you have a basis on when possibly will the altcoins are pumping. Most altcoins follow Bitcoin's movement, and Bitcoin's price goes up a few months after the halving. You know the answer already. :)

Since majority of portfolios is already 29% in profits, what are we waiting for? Go on and buy more tokens because it is obvious that we are in the bull but some persons still don't know thinking that the bull will come to us in a way that the price of Bitcoin will suddenly move to like $60k or more. We don't have to keep asking the questions about the bull when there is so much evidence that the market is riding to the hightest limit. There are more to see in the bull market so we need to be wise and take decisions.

my advice is to immediately take the profit and secure it in bitcoin a few percent. then research again about what coins will be bullish next.
when the price of bitcoin soars, usually altcoins will experience a price decline. then, when bitcoin has normalized altcoin will experience an increase in price.

If you are currently making a profit of 29% from the Altcoin you hold so far, it is possible that when the Bitcoin halving occurs you will experience double the profits, as long as the Altcoin you hold has enough potential.  What you need to avoid is not to be easily influenced into moving your investment to Altcoins whose prices are easily manipulated.

It is good to proceed with confidence in altcoins but it is difficult to predict the future of altcoins. Many altcoins are increasing in price due to the increase in the price of Bitcoin. No one will lose confidence if he researches altcoins on the way to Bitcoin ie half. The unique platform and usage areas in the current type of altcoins have gained gradual traction in the investor and trading cycle.

You are welcome onboard my friend, and the same as myself with what you wrote. The majority of my cryptocurrency portfolios is in altcoins and I have disclosed this many times here. Having 29% profit is a good one for you and will continue to be better over time, but make sure that you continue to carefully select them, and if one doesn't perform much, others will. That is the motive. So, you can continue to buy different ones to vary them but continue carefully selecting them, it is more important. And in the next year and some months, you might have had at least 1000% return, which is huge.

This is my first as well, but I read a lot and hear stories. It is Bitcoin that will lead the race if the past histories are to be considered. But months later the altcoin season will come into play, and it is the time that within just 2 days, many altcoins might move over x10. It would be massive. But I hope that it replicates what happened in the past, if not, it will be a disappointment and mess this time.

That's a good percentage you have achieved I'm still trying to get my altcoin stash to a health state as yours and others which I have seen. I probably don't want to miss any opportunity this time because I wasn't part of the past bull run.

Since Bitcoin is the core motive that derives all Altcoins to increasing in price the bull run of Altcoins are going to ride along with bitcoins bull run because there is no specific time for Altcoins halving so it will pump side by side with Bitcoin.

Yes going with Bitcoin many altcoins have already started pumping.  And since now the price of Bitcoin is uninstalled, the altcoins are not pumping much in this case. When Bitcoin's pumping period ends and the price remains somewhat stable, almost all potential coins will start pumping. However, many times the price of the token is pumped due to any good news or updates of the projects. So if you want to earn profit by trading or holding altcoins, you need to do a lot of analysis on altcoins, then you can be successful from here, otherwise it will not be possible to gain something good from altcoins

I think the alt season will come very near soon. The current market stance are good considering the approval of bitcoin etf. I think it will be a 2years of bull season up to 2025 prior yo halving wr may expect some fud or correction but after the event expect some change or gigantic movement from altcoin projects especially L1 and some new narrative rwa and gamefi.

yes now bitcoin price has started pumping a lot. if i buy some altcoins now will it be ok for me? i have invested bitcoins also thinking of investing in altcoins now i don't understand how good it will be to invest. i guess  Investing in altcoins from Bitcoin is quite risky so I rarely invest in altcoins. But investing in altcoins has a chance to get good amount of profit if the right coin is invested at the right time.

Nice achievement, do you mean in 2024 change your portfolio to be greener on portofolio (profit) ? I agree that you also don't want to lose this momentum too quickly, it's time for the recovery of altcoin prices, especially major and defensive, maybe worth the duration of the past. As far as I know, altcoins are assets that are easily camouflaged because they can pump without joining bitcoin which is consolidating, and can pump because of the halving wind.
If you expect your crypto to grow, increasing your crypto capital allows a good chance, even though the pump is only for a while and I admit that the past 2-4 months there have been frequent impromptu pumps, it shows that altcoins have improved throughout the 2022-2023 period to date. Don't you want to sell some of your altcoin profits on bitcoin? Yes, it looks like you are very enthusiastic about the next few months with the halving, right?

Congratulations in advance that you succeeded to hodl some altcoins till this stage and, you will not regret before next 3 months because, by then the price of altcoins will rise higher more than it is now in the market because the price of BTC has moved to $47k in the second week of January 2024.

The bull run is very near for those that invested when their price was low in the market to get ready because, there are some changes in the market that is making hodlers to wake up from their sleep not to sell their altcoins at this current price before the price will rise higher in the nearest future to help hodlers like you to increase their capital in the future.

Why most in altcoins dude? I think you are doing it wrong. In crypto, we should not ignore the main coin Bitcoin. And being a main coin, means it should also be the main dish when investing. Altcoin is only just an addition here. But, you are lucky and congrats for achieving that profit. It must only be an initial because like you said halving is still far away, and the more we are close to it, the more the increase is also going to be expected.

If we are close to a halving, yes, altcoins could pump after it. But, if in case we are far away from it, altcoins can pump after BTC achieves a new all-time high. There are reasons for it, like one country legalized BTC or made it as a legal tender.

If you look at ARB, you will discover how it's been growing. Alt season doesn't mean all the altcoin will be pump. A few altcoins never met the ATH again. However, to see the altcoin season, Bitcoin should be less volatile. Because of the high volatility of Bitcoin, investors seek quick profits. So it must be less volatile before altcoin season starts. So when Bitcoin starts growing smoothly, then altcoin will grow as well. So most probably we are going to see real altcoin season after halving. 

A wild ride filled with drama. Now the ETF has approved and Bitcoin is starting to be bullish, but before bullishness occurs of course there must be a correction that will occur. Keep in mind that at every height there must be a steep drop.
Every time you reach the maximum height limit on Technical there must be a correction.

During the bull run, some traders will frown themselves since they have missed out on the golden opportunities to gran significant winnings while other traders will reaping good because they invested good time in altcoin projects. Altcoins grows because most of them have no option than to reacts to the long bullish candles formed this season. Bitcoin pump really hard this week, I'm frighten by the bullish moves of bitcoin and I'm aware this coin is just for day before the main projects will be coming in. We're in the altcoin season and we ought to use what we have to actually get what we want.

When bitcoin is pumping, other altcoins will be taking advantage and will pump as well. When bitcoin starts pumping, then I expect altcoins to pump too, but I don’t know if there is any time when we should expect altcoins to pump. Anyone who gives you a specific period of time is just deceiving you. Nobody knows when a particular coin will be pumping or dumping. Just do your analysis well before buying a coin, and always make sure that you are going to be holding your investment for some time, because nobody knows when bitcoin or altcoin will start pumping, but let’s keep on hoping that the bull run will start soon.

  You know my advice to you: instead of thinking like that, it's better to just save cryptos that you think have the potential to give you profit in the coming halving and bull run. It's better than the one where you know when, because first of all, you probably have an idea that the market is unpredictable. In short, no one knows when and what will be the price of a bitcoin or crypto.

  Maybe because you know when there will suddenly be a rally in altcoins, you will buy right there. It is better to buy now if you have options to choose from than when it is already moving and you will buy right there. This is just my advice, and if you don't want to follow it, there is no problem.

The major price increase of altcoins will still be linked through bitcoin, and as many members have reported, I agree that it will take place at the same time as bitcoin's price increases after the halving event. In addition, there is a more important point that I believe many people know about the state of bitcoin reaching new ATH followed by a shift to altcoins, and at that time there will be many altcoins reaching new ATH. And also some basis for everyone to refer to. Indeed, the price increase is actually taking place after the ETF was approved, but from now until the halving event I think there will be something that makes people pay attention. Doubt surrounds and there will be a lot of unpredictable things, but positivity is really happening, and small fluctuations can be overlooked.

The next alt-coins session is determined by Bitcoin price increases, just take a look of things that Bitcoin ETF get approved which makes Bitcoin make little move and most others Alt-coins make moves and even few alt-coins makes more than Bitcoin percentage increase. Therefore every time you invest in alt-coins it counts.

Altcoins neither pumps long nor shortly after Bitcoin halving because they are not connected (at least the way people think). I tell people who are holding Bitcoin, do not have too much expectation or you could get disappointed. And the same thing applies for Altcoin holders.

If you want to invest in Bitcoin or Altcoins, just do it. Whether it is during or after or long after the halving, the bull run will eventually come.

Dear In my honest opinion, it is very hard to find those altcoins that can give you the maximum profit according to your expectations. For this you have to give it a fair time like you need to check the use case of the project you are investing in means Good DYOR is required for Altcoins and Technical analysis is also important for this.

On the other hand, The scenario for Bitcoin is totally different hopefully in this bull run we can have maximum profits out of BTC as we all know that Bitcoin ETF has been approved by the SEC and it is trading now in the coming some months we will be able to see new ATH of Bitcoin. This means no need for DYOR required for Bitcoin due to "it is most strong currency which is trading currently" Perhaps one thing we should follow while investing in BTC. We need to adopt a good investing strategy that can give us a good profit on our average investment.

Some Altcoins have strong fundamentals Like ARB, BNB, ETH, DOT, Etc if you have more good suggest must share with me i would like to know Many Thanks!

Before making altcoins your major investment in cryptocurrency hope you are aware that altcoins are very risky.  If you are going for altcoins you need to find the ones that are reliable,  interesting in so many altcoins their is no guarantee that all altcoins will give you profit. Just go for good altcoins and invest only what you can afford to lose and not to invest all your money in altcoins just because you want to make profit. You can end  up losing your  money into altcoins that are not profitable in the market.

These days, we do not see the absolute altcoin season, usually when bitcoin is pumping, all the altcoins will also pump at the same time and the same is true when the bitcoin is in dumping mode, altcoins dump even further. This means that we may have multiple mini alt seasons throughout the year and the major one will come when bitcoin is at the peak of the bull market.

A very useful saying sir, because there is bitcoin and price hystory in the past to make an investment picture on altcoins, although bitcoin is very influential but altcoin is also a good alternative, maybe bitcoin is the oldest of altcoins and its potential is still increasing it could be beyond my reach in the future. One thing I admit is that altcoins are very cheap sir than investing in other than altcoins with limited capital, the increase in numbers in multiples will be more pronounced than the 0 behind the number ;D . In fact, bitcoin is indeed the safest price, if the dump is not too fatal and there is a reason / news or moment that affects, such as if there is bad news in a country, theft, war and actions that are banned from other humanity, and not based on fun and changing communities.

It is always Alt Season, I Suggest Making Your Own Coin
https://vankushfamily.com/index.php/community/forking-and-cloning/

We need to understand that once the price of Bitcoin start going bullish, we are going to see altcoins too going up which is always a sign that the market is going bullish affect the price of altcoins too. The Bitcoin market always affect altcoin market too so everything works in conjunction to themselves. Once the price of Bitcoin started going bullish, we should expect price of all other coins to fall even though it might not be immediately but definitely, the price is going to fall.

Just as you've said Bitcoin will always remain the head of all coin. The fact that it controls the movement of most coin and token make it a most to hold for everyone. Well, almost all season is a period for altcoin, this depends on the team or the nature of the altcoin sometimes. Imagine the pump on Solana recently.

That means the forum also has your own license sir including github and the tools in it? I was able to enter and have not registered because I only saw from the outside, my eyes were on VKBT is this a hardfork like HIVE, STEEM and BLURT is that your cloning of existing popular altcoins with their source code? I think it's too risky and good work doesn't have to copy or modify from other people's altcoin milki, especially since it is already running and has a cmiiw community.
====================
If creating altcoins is a way to participate, of course I will be confused about marketing because the community must be spoiled with different rewards and performance so that it runs according to the roadmap and whitepaper, can blend in with the trend and last the price with maybe longer which must be taken into account the strategy. BTW for other people it might be a solution to bring profit in the current altcoin season, because I'm sure developers also store other altcoins besides their own altcoins. Although if you already have the expertise the opportunity for investors to come to invest in altcoins that are made can happen. good luck for you sir.

Congratulations on the increase in value in your portfolio, mate. Then, referring to the title of your topic, alt season actually occurs when the Bitcoin Dominance Index is smaller than Altcoins, that's what we call alt season.

So the Bitcoin halving has no correlation whatsoever with alt season, BTW, to see Bitcoin Dominance Index you can see it here (https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/). I hope this helps.
