Alt season soon - what are we expecting next 3-6 months?

[JamesDaniel90]

I am sure many of us are eagerly awaiting alt season and i feel it will be here soon.

This will be my first time experiencing the end of a bull run when everything pumps (hopefully) and I am just wondering what to expect really as I want to make sure I take profits before the market turns round and heads towards the bear market again.

I am expecting 5-10x return for majority of my altcoins from their current prices - is that realistic expectation?

What are we all expecting for the rest of this bull run with altcoins?

[JamesDaniel90]

I am personally feeling pretty burnt out with the market to be honest, it is again crashing as we speak. I have been investing for almost 3 years now had some returns with the likes of XRP and Hbar recently but expected more but I also know the best part of the cycle is coming up over the coming months so at least we have that to come.

I am looking forward to selling during the peak months this year and then taking a good amount of time out of the market and will then wait for the next bear market in 2026 to start investing again.

Stay strong, alt season is not there yet.
We need to wait for Bitcoin to be on its highest and biggest green leg yet to see the alts outperforming Bitcoin for a little while (in the perspective).

Do we still have altcoins season and is it really coming? There is a lot of skepticism about altcoin season, many people are becoming pessimistic that it won't happen and things have changed. If I remember correctly, OP and many altcoin investors have been talking about altcoin season since October 2024 but so far, it hasn't happened.
I also expected altcoin season but I am slowly losing optimism because there are many factors that do not support it to happen. But I wont be disappointed or despair if there is no altcoin season because altcoins don't make up much of my portfolio. And if altcoin ss doesn't happen then I think this is also the reason why we should always have bitcoin in our portfolio instead of focusing 100% on altcoin.

I will be  surprised if there is no altseason. The problem is no one knows when it will be here, some predicted this month but some don't feel it will come till March or April.

I am heavy in alts this bull run so i'm hoping they will really start doing well in the next few months but after this bull run is over , I will then go heavy into Bitcoin.

[bitbollo]

Alt season... I am not sure If there is an altseason, but moreover this will be for ALL altcoins?

BTW I would just avoid memecoins.
Markets are really crazy and it's very easy achieve huge loss with these coins. Yes pumps are always possible but I will not gamble on "this casino".

I would pay attention to PoS coins. I think that a couple of coins could have some profits.
Probably the most profit (or the steady profit) will be provided by DeFi coins or coins that have a market.

I am not expecting anything special, this is not my first bull run, and I will be honest with you, I won’t be selling all my coins during the bull run, because everything doesn’t end there. You might be thinking to buy back when the price drops, but don’t be surprised that the price might not really drop as expected. You expecting 5x-10x is realistic, but depending on the altcoin that you are holding, nobody knows the coin that you are holding, but don’t expect all coins to perform well during the bull run. Don’t be surprised that some coins will do just 2x in the next bull run, so all you should do is make sure you are holding strong altcoins and avoid all these shitcoins in the market.

It will never happen for all altcoins, for sure. Only some of them will shine and before people can figure out which one they are, everything will be over, only a minority will make major profits from altcoins, 5x maybe 10x if they are very lucky.
Staying away from meme coins, dude , this seems like it will be difficult for many investors.
I'm really curious about how the meme coins will progress this season, but I'm following your advice, to be honest.

You are way better than the millions out there thinking of moons, bags and lambos with their 1000x gains.

What are we all expecting for the rest of this bull run with altcoins?

Not everything that we hold are going to pump.

Let that sink in and enjoy this bull run by taking profits. It is your problem if you'll have to wait for another 4-year cycle just for you to profit.

But if you have that kind of patience, praise to yourself.

Well, right now, things seems not to be looking good for Crypto in general, bitcoin is down to $92,000 and this has caused majority of Altcoins to loose a significant amount in value, this is not the first or second its happening, this gives me this impression that we may be slowing entering the bear season after all.

But this is not really an issue for me though, since I am ready to hold my current Altcoin investment for as long as it will take for me to make good profit from them, the problem is that alot of people, most especially newbies In the market, may or might end up disappointed if the altseason does not come as they are expecting.

You should not be surprised that it could be that altcoins will stagnate because there is no progress towards bullrun, especially in the current market conditions, many alctoins have fallen into, so don't get your hopes up because this is still uncertain.

People predict that looking at the bitcoin cycle they say this year will be the peak if you look at history, but this will be a little different so it is possible that the altcoin season could be over.

Hope is certainly not hopeless because somehow the market can bounce back up and this can return to the rise of altcoins.

You don’t know crypto if you think we are entering bear season.

25-30% dips are normal in a bull run, this is just one of those dips.

[markm]

The best way to predict the future is to create it.

Try to at least take a look upon occassion at what IXCoiners and I0Coiners are doing with their venerable ancient yet very high "difficulty" and low minting coins.

See what they manage to achieve over your mentioned timespan; as those are coins currently "small enough" that those very few, very small players are powerful enough despite their in other arenas "tiny" working-capital to really make a difference, taking control of their own coin's fate on the markets.

Next 3-6 months I am expecting the price of most cryptocurrencies to increase significantly. As usual Bitcoin will lead the way but Altcoins will rise in price too. It’s just about being patient & not panic selling during any corrections or pull backs. This is peak bull year, everything will top out for this cycle in 2025. Nobody can tell you when but we have a lot of upside still. You definitely need to take some profits this year though.

Those would be the degen trenchers - these people are all in for the risk and gamble on the possibility to get something so big in value it would surpass all of their dead depos

Well said, you keep on saying that this is your first bull run. And it seems that you have learned a lot from it already and that's why these dips are normal. Have a good look from the start when the halving happened and even not, pre-halving we've reached certain highs and people don't notice that anymore because we've ended 2024 with a bang and that's so much to be thinking of where many have expected it to come by this 2025. If they all happened at the same year, we might see a better year off this 2025. As for the dips to come, these bloody weeks and days are really normal. People needs to look the charts with a zoom and not only with a day or two in timeframe.

[el kaka22]

Reaching 10x will be hard, so I am not really expecting that for "majority" of the coins, that would not be easy at all, it would be more like 2x probably, for majority of them. This doesn't mean that there won't be any with 10x, of course that will happen, I am just saying there won't be many of them, just not majority, but there will be a few that could do that, so we just need to make sure that we can deal with the situation without having too much trouble at all.

I hope that this could reach to a point where we are trusted with this, but obviously we are going to see this having some harder time as well. There isn't really anything we can do about it, we just need to wait and see, but I am sure x10 won't be most of them.

It's because it's a totally different landscape for now. I'm not saying that alts is dead, but it seems that majority are into Bitcoin right now. Even at the start of last year 2024, there is a huge price increase in Bitcoin and even altcoin investors are pouring their money.

And if you look at Ethereum, still down by 30%, so that is huge assuming that we are already in the bull run and yet it had a hard time gaining some prices and way below it's last all time high.

But if you look at Bitcoin, it has move by itself and maybe this could be the first time that Bitcoin and altcoins are decoupling as Bitcoin has left majority of the altcoins that should have been gaining together with it.

It’s my first bull run but I’ve been in crypto a few years now so I have learnt a lot.

It’s been draining some days / weeks, but hopefully the next 6 months or so will make it all worth it.

The first year I invested was peak bear market and it was stressful at times seeing my money go down so quick but I was new and had no idea how it all worked - at least now I am aware of it all and when we see these 10-20% crashes I no longer panic , it’s frustrating at times but never panic as I know it will always come back up in bull run.

I know we will get to a point though sometime this year where it won’t come back after a crash which is why I plan to take out my profits gradually. We can have a rough idea of when the top of the market will be but no one knows for sure so I won’t risk waiting too long before selling.

10x is possible if you have been buying last few years like many of us have - i currently have 1 altcoin that has given me over 30x return and two that have done 10x and we are not even if the peak months of alt season yet.

It depends on a lot of things, Bitcoin won’t 10x , you will be lucky to get 2x from current price. But altcoins with low market cap can 5-10x in less than a month in alt season.

The key for me is to just make sure you are not too heavy in a few altcoins and just spread your money in 5-10  coins at least and you will likely hit a 10x.
