Bitcoin ETF joins Treasuries as BlackRock doubles down on BTC for 2025

There’s been a major shift in profitability since the Bitcoin price crashed 
from $126,000, and altcoins have borne the brunt of it. With major altcoins 
down between 30% and 80% from their all-time high values, calls for an altcoin 
season have gone down drastically. This has been reflected in the performance 
of the Altcoin Season Index, falling to one of the lowest recorded levels in 
2025 as the year draws to an end. Altcoin Season Index Says Losses Are The 
Order Of The Day The Altcoin Season Index Chart on the CoinMarketCap website, 
which tracks the performance of altcoins against Bitcoin, has now fallen below 
20 again. This index collates the performance of the top 100 altcoins in the 
market, comparing their 90-day performance to that of Bitcoin, in order to 
pinpoint whether the market is currently experiencing an altcoin season.

Could Follow The index ranks the performance on a scale of 1-100, depending on 
how many altcoins out of the top 100 are outperforming Bitcoin, and uses that 
to score the market. At the time of writing, the Altcoin Season Index was 
sitting at a score of 17, which means only 17 of the top 100 altcoins have 
seen a better performance than Bitcoin in the last 90 days. With the index’s 
score sitting this low, it suggests that altcoins are currently in a bear 
market. Additionally, Ethereum, which is often the altcoin leader when it 
comes to an alt season, is still underperforming compared to Bitcoin. The 
second-largest cryptocurrency has recorded a 28.30% decrease in the last 90 
days, while Bitcoin is down 21.10% in comparison. How To Know If Altcoins Are 
In A Bull Run? To know if the altcoin market is experiencing an altcoin 
season, the index would have to read at a score of 75 or higher. This is when 
the majority of altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin in a 3-month period, and 
their combined market cap surpasses that of the leading cryptocurrency.

Price Tag Is Possible Scores lower than 75 suggest that the market is yet to 
enter a full-blown altcoin season, and the lower it goes, the higher the 
chances that altcoins are experiencing a bear market. However, the higher the 
Altcoin Season Index score is, nearing 100, the more likely it is that the 
altcoin market may be experiencing a top. Altcoin seasons are often 
characterized by rapid increases in price, with 100% rallies on a daily basis 
being the norm. The last major altcoin season was back in 2021, and while the 
expectation was that another altcoin season would begin in 2025, this has not 
been the case. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
