We need a real return to altcoins.

[Barikui1]

The holders of Alts coin who are stuck in market for a long time they face much lose due to Bearish season of Bitcoin they still have to for a long time till the market will recover they have none other option else hold it but they use this time as a golden period and they can buy the Alts coin from the down side so when the market will recover they gain more profit from it .

If they are holding Bitcoin, they will have another chance in the next bullrun season. However, I'm not so sure they will have the chance to recover it if they are holding altcoins. We know altcoins are quite difficult to predict, many altcoins never return to their best prices anymore. Even, some of them become deadcoins because they are no longer listed in exchanges. Well, I suggest to buy Bitcoin if they still have funds. Just avoid buying more random altcoins although we are in the right time for buying crypto coins!

Yeah, you are right with all your said here. Those that invested in Bitcoin will have little worries compared to those that invested in alt or meme coin because they hardly recovers their previous high, as you have said already. Out of 100 alt and meme coin in the market, it's only like 14 of them or less that have the capacity to recover to their previous high, because investors are not that confident in them to put so much money on them during the bull season, unlike Bitcoin that has gained the confidence and trust of most investors. What most alt investor usually does is by taking a gambling on many of them an look if they can make a fortune from any of them that pumps, that's why I believe that it's more of gambling than investment.

I know this altcoin condition will not remain the same forever in the market, bitcoin we are seeing today make some investors nearly give up because there was some altcoins that was leading then but right now bitcoin is toping other coins in the market, base on some challenges altcoins are displaying right now, I don't think altcoins bullish season will happen soon because bitcoin price is performing some signs that will make altcoin holders to know what will happen in the future and be bold with the kind of altcoins they are holding right now.

Yes, all investors need to be patient enough to hold for long, if you cannot be patient with any investment not only crypto, you will lose money and might not make good money from the investment.

Bitcoin investment has been there for long, investors that were patient are in good profit they never expected today, same as some altcoin investors that were opportune to invest in some leading altcoins from the early stage.
This is achieved because the are patient to hold for long, if you can’t be patient, you can’t make such profit except in meme coins which has already lost their relevance.
It can’t continue like this, we are expecting the market to take another direction soon because alt in investors are not smiling.

It is not right to look at all altcoins in the same way. Buying more altcoins during a price drop can be a golden opportunity. This may be true in some cases, but it is not certain whether the ones you are investing more in due to the price drop will survive in the long term. That is why this strategy may not be a good match for altcoins. Because if the project does not survive in the long term, then buying at a low price may not be profitable. Most small altcoins in the market cannot reach the previous high price even after going through multiple bullish cycles.

The thing I fear most about altcoins from previous experience is that the dip of small altcoins starts a big drop which can not recover. However, this is not the same case with all coins.

If Bitcoin dominance starts to increase in the current bear market, then historically, I see many times that Bitcoin performs strongly first, then after some time some of the capital flows to the larger altcoins and then to the smaller altcoins. So, the safest strategy until then is to be patient.

[kawetsriyanto]

Yeah, you are right with all your said here. Those that invested in Bitcoin will have little worries compared to those that invested in alt or meme coin because they hardly recovers their previous high, as you have said already.

Bitcoin is the safest option in crypto investment. Sure, it can't be compared with altcoins. Many people only want to invest in Bitcoin only because they realize the lower level of the risk. Some of them don't want to struggle with their mentality by choosing altcoins.

Out of 100 alt and meme coin in the market, it's only like 14 of them or less that have the capacity to recover to their previous high, because investors are not that confident in them to put so much money on them during the bull season, unlike Bitcoin that has gained the confidence and trust of most investors. What most alt investor usually does is by taking a gambling on many of them an look if they can make a fortune from any of them that pumps, that's why I believe that it's more of gambling than investment.

I'm not sure how many altcoins can survive among the 100 altcoins. It can be 10% or below 10% of 100 altcoins. The point is very small percentage of the altcoins that can survive and grow well in the market after a long time period. So, I can agree with you that investors tend to gamble in altcoins, specifically for random altcoins and new altcoins. However, investors are still investing (not gambling) if they choose top altcoins with strong fundamentals such as BNB, ETH, SOL, or HYPE. It is because these altcoins have bigger chance to keep growing well in the future.

This is not about Bitcoin is topping Altcoin but you need to understand why so many investors are leaving altcoins to put their investments on Bitcoin only. If you have not lost a fortune to altcoins, you will not understand what it means to put all your investment on Bitcoin only.
You can make money from altcoins but that is not guaranteed. You can lose more than you have invested on altcoins and that's the bitter truth many investors don't wanna listen to because of their intentions.

In a blink, an altcoin can turn $100 into $10k, and within a short interval the same $10K may be around $10, this is basically how the altcoin market dies very quickly and the reason why most people do not take them seriously.

Investors are looking to set long term goals and not short term profits alone. First they start with buying and storing Bitcoin, every other altcoin comes second to Bitcoin after a good portfolio has been set up.

Investors are still diversifying into altcoins, holding Bitcoin does not stop them, but we can't take a big U turn over to altcoins.

Investing in Bitcoin should be a priority for anyone who is interested in investing in cryptocurrencies, investing in altcoins is like gambling, doing something that you absolutely have no guarantee about, even if you invest in a long term investment, there is no long term plan when you’re investing in altcoins, altcoins are for people who are majorly traders, I wonder who have a long term plans to altcoins when altcoins can crash at anytime and it’s something that can get to a point of no return.

Can I suggest EgalChain ? I am working on it alone, and I might need advices, or practical help (depends on what you do), but I am trying to build a team, and the corpo way isn't for me and either for EgalChain. I invite you to read it, by the way I am on testnet so it stay modulable and it is, I think the best time to constitute a genuinely purpose's team. How you see it ?

[M47AK16]

There have to be enough of us OGs that we could all work together and dev something really cool. Memecoins and shit are cool to an extent and they kind of scratch the itch but I want to make something that really gives us all hope again. With people that know how to fucking hold longer than 30 seconds. Maybe its a pipe dream idk, but I really miss the 2013 era so much. Thats when everything felt exciting and progress wasnt paywalled to fuck and back.

I feel you bro. The old days had a different energy more about building and believing, less about quick flips and hype. Memecoins are fun, but they don't carry that same weight or purpose.

It would be great to see a shift back to projects with real vision. Not just talk, but actual use cases and longterm thinking. The space needs more of that if it wants to grow beyond just speculation

Unfortunately, those days are gone, for example on the last bull run last year, did you see anything great come out? Every bull run had at least one project that was created which made it to near top levels, because it was something new and people liked it. This time there wasn't one, it was just memecoins on SOL and other already established coins going up, that's it. So we no longer have that development thing, we do not see people spending months and even sometimes years developing the next big thing, they just spend 10 minutes on creating some token and then rest is just about marketing budget, if you have a big marketing budget then you grow big and if not then you do not grow big that is all there is to it.

True. Most people should prioritize Bitcoin as their main crypto investment, especially for a long term holding. It is quite reasonable because Bitcoin is the most trustable crypto coin. Regarding the altcoins, not all altcoins are lack of trust. Some top altcoins are also good for a long term holding. Even they didn't always create a new ATH in each bullrun season, they still can increase well during the bullish market. So, people still can earn good profits.

altcoins are for people who are majorly traders

Yep, altcoins can be suitable for trading because they have bigger volatility. Traders have a chance to earn significant profits with the bigger volatility. But it also means bigger risk, too. Altcoin prices can freefall at any time besides it also can skyrocket as well.

You can suggest anyone once you can prove you have a trusted project.
I doubt anyone want to join it for now since there is lack of information of the project.

The situation is certainly different for Bitcoin; its value consistently rises, particularly from one bull market to the next. Altcoins, however, are a different story. Only a fraction manage to survive through bull cycles and go on to set new all-time highs in subsequent runs. This is largely due to the sheer number of altcoins flooding the market, many of which share similar concepts. Top altcoins compete fiercely to attract investors and maintain high trading volumes.

Unfortunately, the proliferation of meme coins causes the altcoin landscape to shift rapidly, with some meme projects appearing and disappearing within a matter of days.

This is true; we didn't have anything major. That part I am not going to deny; we didn't get anything near the top 10 levels. However, saturation and being top-heavy is not bad either. Because it means we reached a level where it would not be possible to change that much; volatility will be lower, and everything will be more like a traditional market. I am not saying that is good for the traders, but if people can trade gold and still make money, then you can damn sure make it on bitcoin when it becomes more stable.

All those days where we may move 2x in a single week could be gone; not saying it's fully gone for now, but it could be. And all those altcoins that people invested to make x100? They may not be around that much anymore, at least now with high-cap stuff; most of them are low-cap tokens that some rich person buys, but liquidity is low on those, so it's not a big global thing. In the end, we had to realise the fact that an x10 for bitcoin type of thing will end; we are not going to see that much, but we still have a great ROI investment with bitcoin, far better than all other investments.

It be really hard to get back the 2013 era in Altcoins to be honest, that era was like that because it was entirely a new innovation, and devs were building real projects that centered on use cases, not the what we are seeing now. The project owners were more sincere and honest back then in developing real projects. And investors were not disappointed that much. They were investing and were seeing results.

But today investors have seen a lot from many failed projects, failed promises upon promises. Now investors are scared and extremely careful to part ways with their money. Investors don’t know which project is real anymore. And this will make it difficult for such era to return again.

Why we need to return to 2013 era? There are many altcoins in 2013 disappearing, it is not really so different with the current condition. Sure, the number of failed altcoins is bigger now because we have bigger number of altcoins launched every year. I'm sure there are also investors who get good profits as in 2013 nowadays.

It makes sense that we have many failed projects because we have thousands of crypto projects. The competition among the crypto projects is also one of the reasons that many projects to end up with a failure. So, we must be careful to choose a crypto project. We must ensure to choose the most convincing project only (I personally avoid joining new crypto projects).

It was indeed a beautiful time, though I missed out on the news. I only found out about it in mid-2017, so I wasn't too far behind. It was certainly an interesting era, especially for those who jumped in with significant capital.

Yes. Nowadays, so many platforms emerge with various forms—whether coins or tokens they’ve created only for the majority to die out or be abandoned. Very few manage to survive, and even that depends on whether the team has a genuine intention to develop the project. Otherwise, it’s the usual story: one dies, a thousand more are churned was born. If other people’s losses are irrelevant as long as the creators line their own pockets, that’s all that matters to them.

Most of us missed the altcoins boom of the past and we can only read about it now as history, but for us to expect another altcoins season .ay be like waiting endlessly since most of the recent projects have lacked the infrastructure that attracts investors into their projects, since none of them have ecosystem to prove as convincing factor for investors, attention have shifted from altcoins to more important sectors only bitcoin and a few others can actually make any remarkable progress in the future which should be followed carefully not to miss out on the opportunity of the current discount price for bitcoin.

[KingsDen]

It just feel like there's nothing like Alt season again. When I joined this industry new, I was hearing much hype about the altcoins season. It was very much anticipated in 2021, but bitcoin took the lead. Till now, I haven't witnessed the alt season. Is it not happening again? Has the market shifted and can no longer accommodate alt season.

I know that when a market matures, many things will disappear naturally and no things will be introduced. Now I ask you, do you think there will ever be anything call alt season again?

[Abiky]

That's why many consider altcoins as a form of gambling. You can either end up rich or poor in an instant. The situation is even worse with "meme" coins. When take a good look at the market, you will realize that the vast majority of altcoins are speculative by nature. They lack real world utility or seriousness. Only a very small portion delivers as intended. Perhaps, that's why most investors (both retail and institutional) are only interested in BTC. One would hope things change in the future.

Personally, I'm a long-term alts "hodler". It would be nice to see altcoin season make a comeback. I mean, Bitcoin can't be the only coin to have "all of the fun". Our world is based on diversity/variety. I'd buy and "hodl" prominent alts, and forget about the rest.

I'm surprised that you are so pessimistic with altcoin season. Even the chance seems getting smaller, it doesn't mean "no chance" at all, right?   
Well, if you have been in crypto in 2021, you must experience the altcoin season at that time. I'm not sure that you have no experience about the altcoin season.
Anyway, people who invest in altcoins, they don't solely rely on altcoin season. Some altcoins still can reach new ATHs although there is no altcoin season. It means the people who invest in altcoins, they still can earn good profits from altcoins. Sure, sometimes the trend in the market changes, we need to adjust our strategy in crypto investmen.

I know that when a market matures, many things will disappear naturally and no things will be introduced. Now I ask you, do you think there will ever be anything call alt season again?

I still think the altcoin season is still possible although the chance won't be as big as in the past.
Yep, if investors become more mature, they will be more selective in choosing the crypto assets. However, I think people are still interested in altcoins, they may only avoid too risky altcoins such as memecoins or new altcoins with unclear fundamentals.
