Is the 2025 altcoin season in danger? – Why analysts think otherwise
- Altcoins have experienced significant sell-offs, but signs of a potential rebound are emerging.
- The altcoins’ market faces challenges but could rally with macroeconomic stabilization and increased liquidity.
The market has taken a sharp downturn, with billions wiped off the table in hours and hopes for a near-term altcoin season fading. However, some analysts remain optimistic, arguing that the cycle’s peak may still be ahead.
They point to historical patterns and current market dynamics suggesting the market’s upward trajectory may not have reached its ceiling yet.
As volatility continues, the big question remains: Are we witnessing the start of a longer bear market, or is there still room for more growth before the inevitable correction sets in?
